CONNECTIONS:

1.Ensure that the POWER (1) switch is in the OFF posi- tion prior to making any connections. This unit comes with a 15V AC (2) adapter. Plug into the rear panel 15V AC (2) jack before plugging it into a proper power source.

2.The iPMX has one output located on the back panel, the MASTER RCA OUTPUT (3). Plug the MASTER RCA OUTPUT (3) into your main amplifier using standard audio cables with RCA-type connectors.

3.Headphones may be plugged into the front panel- mounted HEADPHONES (8) ¼" jack.

4.Microphones may be plugged into the front panel- mounted MICROPHONE (10) ¼" jack

5.The iPMX has 2 CONVERTIBLE PHONO/LINE RCA INPUTS (6,27) located on the back panel on either side of the RCA INPUTS. Facing the back panel, the convertible RCA Input on your right is for PHONO 1/ LINE 1 (27). The convertible RCA input on your left is for PHONO 2/ LINE

3(6). Using the PHONO/ LINE SWITCHES (4,26), located just below each input, you may convert the PHONO to LINE and vice versa. Plug the RCA's from your playable medium into each input to be connected to their respec- tive CHANNELS (19,31). The PHONO INPUTS (6,27)only accept turntables with a magnetic cartridge. The STEREO LINE INPUTS (6,7,27,28) only accept line level inputs such as a CD, DAT, MiniDisc, etc and require the proper switch setting.

6.When using (a) turntable(s), you will need to ground the RCA cable(s) by screwing in the grounding fork(s) to the GROUNDING SCREWS (5,29)located in the back panel of the iPMX mixer. Attach each PHONO ground line to one of the DUAL GROUND THUMB SCREWS (5,29). These are adjacent to each RCA INPUT (6,7,27,28).

NOTE: Not attaching a ground may cause a system "hum."

and LOW (21) controls allow you to fully adjust the select- ed source. The PH-1/LN-1(26) switch located on the rear panel allows you to select PHONO 1 or LINE 1. The PHONO1/LINE1-LINE 2 (17) switch located on the front allows you to switch from PHONO 1 to LINE 2 or LINE 1 to LINE 2. CHANNEL 1 SLIDE (19) controls the input level of this channel.

3.CHANNEL 2: The GAIN (32), HIGH (33), MID (34),

and LOW (35) controls allow you to fully adjust the select- ed source. The PH-2/LN-3(4) switch a located on the rear panel allows you to select PHONO 2 or LINE 3.
