EUROPORT EPA900 User Manual
1. Before You Get Started
1.1 Shipment
Your EPA900 was carefully packed at the factory, and the packaging was
designed to protect the unit from rough handling. Nevertheless, we recommend
that you carefully examine the packaging and its contents for any signs of
physical damage that may have occurred during transit.
◊
If the unit is damaged, please do NOT return it to BEHRINGER.
Instead, notify your dealer and the shipping company immediately.
Otherwise, claims for damage or replacement may not be honored.
◊
Always use the original packing carton to prevent damage during
storage or transport.
◊
Make sure that no children are left unsupervised with the unit or
its packaging.
◊
Please ensure proper disposal of all packing materials.
1.2 Initial operation
Be sure that there is enough space around the unit for cooling. To avoid
overheating, please do not place the EPA900 near radiators and other equipment
emanating heat.
◊
Blown fuses must be replaced by fuses of the same type and rating!
Please refer to the “TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS” section for the correct
rating. To avoid an electric shock, turn off and unplug the unit before
replacing the fuse. For more information, please see Chapter 3.8
and Figure 3.9.
The mains connection is made using the enclosed power cord and a standard IEC
receptacle. It meets all of the international safety certification requirements.
◊
Before connecting the unit to the mains, please check that it is set to
the correct supply voltage.
◊
You have to use another fuse if you set the unit to another supply
voltage. The correct value is specified in Chapter “Specifications”.
◊
Please make sure that all units have a proper ground connection.
For your own safety, never remove or disable the ground
conductor from the unit or of the AC power cord. The unit shall
always be connected to the mains socket outlet with a protective
earthing connection.
◊
Please ensure that only qualified people install and operate the
mixing console. During installation and operation, the user must have
sufficient electrical contact to earth, otherwise electrostatic discharges
might affect the operation of the unit.
◊
The sound quality may diminish within the range of powerful
broadcasting stations and high-frequency sources. Increase the
distance between the transmitter and the device and use shielded
cables for all connections.
