Step by Step Instructions
IMPORTANT
- Follow this STEP by STEP procedure. Each STEP has specific tests to determine if the console installation
has been performed correctly to that point.
a) STEP 1- POWER SUPPLY INSTALLATION
The console power supply should be plugged into a surge protected outlet. First plug the power supply into the back of the console and then plug the
power supply into the AC outlet.
TEST- The console should now be on. To test for power, simply push one of the console On/off switches to see that the Channel On LED lights.
b) STEP 2- CONNECT AN AUDIO SOURCE
Select a single audio source such as a CD player. Choose a console channel for the source (such as Channel 3), and connect the audio source to the
console with a stereo audio cable. An RCA audio cable is usually provided with the CD player.
On the channel that you have chosen for the source (such as
channel 3), turn the channel on by pushing the red on button(the red on LED
should now be on), and bring the slide fader on that channel to the in hand
setting (0).
Insert a CD into the CD player and push the Play button on the CD
player to begin play.
TEST- The VU meters on the console should move as the CD plays a song.
c) STEP 3- LISTEN TO AUDIO ON HEADPHONES
Plug the headphones into the headphone jack on the back right side of the console as illustrated. The console supports only high impedance (>20 ohm) head-
phones. On the console, the Monitor Selector switch should be off (assigned to the Program bus) and set the Headphone Volume control to 1/2. Play a CD as
in Step 2. Adjust the headphone level control on the console to a comfortable audio level.
TEST- You should hear the song on the CD clearly. There should be no audible hum or noise. If you hear no audio or there is hum or noise, then repeat Steps
1,2,&3.
