INSTALLING THE MIXER
Correct connection and positioning of your mixer is important for successful and trouble-free
operation. The following sections are intended to give guidance with cabling, connections and
configuration of your mixer.
•
Choose the mains supply for the sound system with care, and do not share sockets or
earthing with lighting dimmers.
•
Position the mixer where the sound can be heard clearly.
•
Run audio cables separately from dimmer wiring, using balanced lines wherever possi-
ble. If necessary, cross audio and lighting cables at right angles to minimise the pos-
sibility of interference. Keep unbalanced cabling as short as possible.
•
Check your cables regularly and label each end for easy identification.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
For your own safety and to avoid invalidation of the warranty please read this section carefully.
In particular, you should also read the Cautions and Warnings on pages 5-6 of this manual.
The console must only be connected to the Mains Voltage
indicated on the rear panel.
To avoid the risk of fire, replace the mains fuse only with
the correct value fuse, as indicated on the rear panel.
General Precautions
Do not obstruct any of the ventilation openings.
Avoid storing or using the mixer in conditions of excessive heat or cold, or in positions
where it is likely to be subject to vibration, dust or moisture.
Keep the mixer clean using a soft dry brush, and an occasional wipe with a damp cloth
or ethyl alcohol. Do not use any other solvents which may cause damage to paint or
plastic parts.
Avoid placing drinks or smoking materials on or near the mixer. Sticky drinks and ciga-
rette ash are frequent causes of damage to faders and switches.
Regular care and inspection will be rewarded by a long life and maximum reliability.
