Chapter 4: Basic connections

Power connection

The [DC IN] connector (XLR-4-32 type) on the left side panel is used for operating the unit on the optional AC adaptor or an external battery. The PD204 also pro- vides the [DC OUT] connector for supplying DC-12V to an external device.

<Notes>

The [DC OUT] connector can deliver up to 0.5 ampere electric current at DC 12V to 24V. Only connect a device which meets this requirement.

We strongly recommend using the [DC OUT] connector while you are operating the PD204 on the AC adaptor (or an external battery). If you use the [DC OUT] connectors to supply the power to an external device while the PD204 runs on the battery, the battery power is exhausted quickly.
