SoundCraft D-Mix 500 manual Installation, Wiring Considerations, Power Supply

Installation

The D-MIX500 is designed for reliability and high performance, and is built to the highest standards. Whilst great care has been taken to ensure that installations are made as troublefree as possible, care taken at this stage, followed by correct setting up will be rewarded by a long life and reliable operation.

Wiring Considerations

(A)For optimum performance it is essential for the earthing system to be clean and noisefree, as all signals are referenced to this earth. A central point should be decided on for the main earth point, and all earths should be ’star-fed’ from this point. It is recommended that an individual earth wire be run from each electrical outlet, back to the system star point to provide a safety earth reference for each piece of equipment.

(B)Install separate mains outlets for the audio equipment, and feed these independently from any other equipment.

(C)Avoid locating mains distribution boxes near audio equipment, especially tape recorders, which are very sensitive to electromagnetic fields.

Power Supply
