VoltageSelectionandPowerConnection

Connection is made by means of an IEC standard power socket. The rear panel text indicates the voltage range required for satisfactory operation of the unit.

Before connecting this unit to the mains supply, ensure the fuse fitted is the correct type and rating is as indicated on the rear panel, adjacent to the fuse holder.

SafetyWarning

This unit is fitted with a standard fused IEC mains inlet: For safety reasons the earth lead should never be disconnected.

To prevent shock or fire hazard, do not expose the unit to rain or moisture. To avoid electrical shock do not remove covers. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.

Attention!Cables

This product should only be used with high quality, screened twisted pair audio cables, terminated with metal bodied 3-pin XLR connectors. Any other cable type or configuration for the audio signals may result in degraded performance due to electromagnetic interference.

Should this product be used in an electromagnetic field that is amplitude modulated by an audio frequency signal (20Hz to 20kHz), the signal to noise ratio may be degraded. Degradation of up to 60dB at a frequency corresponding to the modulation signal may be experienced under extreme conditions (3V/m, 90% modulation).
