Rear Panel: Power

Power
Voltage Select
Before connecting the Phonitor 2 to the mains, make sure that the vol-
tage selection corresponds to the values of your local power grid (230
or 115 volts).
The mains connector on the rear panel integrates a fuse box that in-
cludes fuses for both voltage ranges. To select the voltage take out
the fuse box, turn it around and place it back again. Inside the power
connector, to the right, next to the on/off switch, there is an opening
that displays the voltage selected. If the voltage indicated does not
correspond to the one required, change it by following this procedure:
Open the power connector lid with a small screwdriver (use the tiny
slots on the right hand side). Use the screwdriver to lever the red fuse
box from above until you can grab it. Take the fuse box out, turn it
around 180 degrees and place it back again. When you close the lid
again, you should see the correct voltage displayed in the opening.
Power Connection
Connect the included power cord to the rear, 3 pin power input. The
transformer, power cord and inlet of the appliance conform to VDE, UL
and CSA requirements.
On/Off Switch
Use the rear on/off switch to activate and deactivate the unit. The ope-
rational status is indicated by the illuminated VU meters on the front
panel. We deliberately chose to place the switch on the rear panel in
order to avoid interferences from power wiring through the unit to the
front panel. When switching on and off, you do not need to follow any
particular sequence with connected devices in the periphery of the
unit. There is, however, a general rule for audio devices connected to-
gether: always turn on power amplifiers last and turn them off first. If
sufficiently specified, you can also switch the unit on and off through a
multiway connector or other main switches.
Caution: Before connecting any other equipment – and in all other
cases where you are connecting cables with or from other sources –
you should be sure to switch off the Phonitor 2 and all other devices
you want to connect it to. Otherwise you risk damaging the unit, other
connected gear and/or your ears.
