1. POWER CONNECTION

This jack accepts the supplied 3-prong IEC AC power cord.

Before you plug the AC power cord into the

powered mixer, make sure that the voltage of

your unit is the same voltage as your local AC mains supply. Use only the power cord supplied. Also, disconnecting the plug’s ground pin is dangerous. Please don’t do it.

2. POWER SWITCH

Press the top of this rocker switch inwards to turn on the mixer. The front panel power LED [31] will glow with happiness, or at least it will if you have the mixer plugged into a suitable live AC mains supply.

Press the bottom of this switch to turn off the mixer, whenever you feel that this would be a safe thing to do. Half-way through a heavy metal guitar solo might not be such a good time.

3. SPEAKER-LEVEL OUTPUTS

These output connections provide speaker-level output power from the internal power amplifiers to your passive speakers. The power output of the PPM608 is 300 watts rms per channel into 4 ohms.

Only passive loudspeakers should be connected to these speaker-level outputs.

The outputs can be selected with the amp mode switch [4] to be either the stereo main mix, mono main mix/monitor 1, or monitor 1/monitor 2.

Two common types of connector are provided for your convenience: Speakons and 1/4" TS.

•Speakon outputs are wired Pin 1+ positive (hot) and Pin 1– negative (cold).

As a general guide, you should turn on your

mixer first, before any external power ampli-

 

fiers or powered speakers, and turn it off last.

 

This will reduce the possibilities of any turn-

 

on, or turn-off thumps in your speakers.
