Rear Panel

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. And no running with scissors either. Let's be
safe out there!

2. POWER SWITCH

Press the top of this rocker switch inwards to turn on
the mixer. The front panel power LED [42] 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.
As a general guide, you should turn on your
powered mixer fi rst, before any external power
amplifi ers or powered speakers, and turn it off
last. This will reduce the possibilities of any
turn-on, or turn-off thumps in your speakers.

3. SPEAKER-LEVEL OUTPUTS

These output connections provide speaker-level
output power from the internal power amplifi ers to your
passive speakers. The outputs can be selected with the
amp mode switch [53] to be either the stereo main mix,
mono main mix/monitor 1, or monitor 1/monitor 2.
The power output of the PPM1012 is 500 watts rms
per channel into 4 ohms, and 800 watts peak.

OUTPUT POWER: @ 4 OHMS,
800 WATTS PEAK PER CH
MINIMUM LOAD: 4 OHMS PER CHANNEL
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).
Mono Speakon Connection
• 1/4" TS outputs are wired Tip positive, and
Sleeve negative.
1/4" TS Connection
These two types of outputs are wired in parallel, and
it is possible to use both types at once.
The minimum impedance that the powered
mixer can handle is 4 ohms per channel, and
we recommend that you do not go below this.
If you are using both outputs per channel, make sure
each loudspeaker is 8 ohms impedance or greater.

4. VENTILATION

These holes in the rear panel allow the inter-
nal fans to fl ow breezy and minty-fresh cooling
air over the internal power amplifi ers. Do not
obstruct these holes, or the amplifi ers may overheat and
shut down. Do not remove the feet, as these help keep
the powered mixer off the ground for ventilation.
