Theadapter complies with all applicable safety standards.
◊ Please use only the power supply unit provided with the console.
◊ Never connect the XENYX to the power supply unit while the latter is
connected to the mains! First connect the console to the power supply
unit, then connect the power supply unit to the mains.
◊ Please note that both the power supply unit and the mixing console
heat up considerably during operation. This is completely normal.
4.2 Audio connections
You will need a large number of cables for dierent applications. The illustrations
below show how the connectors should be wired. Be sure to use only
high-gradecables.
Please use commercial RCA cables to connect the CD/tape inputs and outputs.
You can, of course, also connect unbalanced equipment to the balanced
inputs/outputs. To do this, use either mono plugs or stereo plugs with the ring
and sleeve bridged (pins 1 and 3 in the case of XLR connectors).
◊ Caution! Never use unbalanced XLR connectors (PIN 1 and 3 connected)
on the MIC input connectors when using the phantom power supply.
