1. Power

Use this rocker-style switch to turn the unit on or
off. The processor is on when the top of the switch is
pressed in. It is off when the bottom of the switch is
pressed in. The LCD Display [6] will illuminate and
text will appear when the power switch is on.
The SP260 remembers its settings, so you may power
cycle the unit and it will resume operation using the
same settings as before. The SP260 employs relays
on the outputs to prevent unwanted pops and noise
in the system when power cycling and starting up
the processor. After engaging the power switch, the
unit will initialize and the relays will switch. Any
live outputs will smoothly fade from silence to their
configured output levels. The processor may now be
edited, or you may signal the band to start playing if
the SP260 is already configured for the PA system.

2. Power Cord Socket and Fuse

This is where to connect the detachable power cord
included with the processor. Plug the other end of the
power cord into an AC outlet. The outlet should match
the power cord.
WARNING: Bypassing the plug's safety
ground pin can be dangerous. Don't do it!
The fuse is located behind the fuse cover, at the
bottom of the IEC socket. See the "Troubleshooting"
section on page 22 for information about replacing the
fuse.

3. Main: Lift / Gnd

The ground lift separates the chassis ground from
the signal ground. The default position is GND.
You may attempt to remedy system ground loop
hum by moving the switch to LIFT.

4. XLR Outputs

These six male XLR connectors provide a balanced
line-level signal for each of the processor's output
channels. Connect these to the inputs of power
amplifiers and/or powered loudspeakers.

5. XLR Inputs

These female XLR connectors accept a balanced
line-level input from a mixer's main L/R output.
