Unpacking Check the equipment for any transport damage. A unit that is mechanically damaged or that has been penetrated by liquids or foreign objects must not be connected to the AC power outlet or must be immediately disconnected by unplugging the power cable.
Page 5 Installation Class I Equipment (Mains Operation) Should the equipment be delivered without a matching mains cable, the latter has to be prepared by a trained person using the attached female plug (IEC320/C13 or IEC320/C19) with respect to the applicable regulations in your country.
Page 6 Installation/Maintenance/ESD tor) and that also takes into consideration the EMC requirements. When deciding between radial, surface, or combined grounding, the advan- tages and disadvantages should be carefully evaluated in each case. • Use shielded cables where shielding is specified. The connection of the shield to the corresponding connector terminal or housing should have a large surface and be corrosion-proof.
Page 7 ESD/Repair material in which the replacement assembly was shipped. If this should not be the case, any claim for a possible refund will be null and void. • Unpacked ESD sensitive components should only be handled in ESD protected areas (EPA, e.g. area for field service, repair or service bench) and only be touched by persons who wear a wristlet that is connected to the ground potential of the repair or service bench by a series resistor.
Page 8 Repair/Disposal SMD Components Studer does not keep any commercially available SMD components in stock. For repair the corresponding devices should be purchased locally. The specifications of special components can be found in the service man- ual. SMD components should only be replaced by skilled specialists using ap- propriate tools.

Page 57: Routing
OnAir 2000M2 Digital Mixing Console Routing The OnAir 2000M2 features a channel router that allows to route the out- put of any input module (including the complete parameter set, as stereo mode, gain, filter, sends, bus assignment) to any fader strip. Please note that the inputs of the same input module cannot be assigned to different fader strips, as the input selector switch is located before the preamplifier.
Page 58: Channel Routing
OnAir 2000M2 Digital Mixing Console 5.8.1 Channel Routing The channel routing, i.e. the input module-to-fader strip assignment, is accessed on the CHANNEL ROUTING page. There is only one user- specific channel routing per logged-in user available. Should the user have no access permission to the channel routing, this page is not displayed.
Page 59 OnAir 2000M2 Digital Mixing Console However, the new routing is not stored in the user's profile. When the user logs out, the temporary channel routing is lost, and his original channel routing will be loaded when logging in the next time.
Page 60 In this moment, the audio level of an input signal may not correspond to the physical position of the new fader. As the OnAir 2000M2 does not feature motorized faders, the Auto Takeover symbol is displayed in the corresponding channel section of the fader screen.
Page 61: Recall A Channel Routing From Memory
OnAir 2000M2 Digital Mixing Console 5.8.2 Recall a Channel Routing from Memory Automatical Recall: Every logged-in user has his own user channel routing that is loaded either automatically when logging-in, or manually. This is defined by customer code 0x00000200 (see chapter 12.2.12).
