Installation and Safety Precautions
Installing the Mixer
C
orrect connection and positioning of your mixer is important for successful and trouble-free operation. The following
sections are intended to give guidance with cabling, connections and configuration of your mixer.
o Choose the mains supply for the sound system with care, and do not share sockets or earthing with lighting dimmers.
o Position the mixer where the sound can be heard clearly.
o Run audio cables separately from dimmer wiring, using balanced lines wherever possible. If necessary, cross audio and
lighting cables at right angles to minimise the possibility of interference. Keep unbalanced cabling as short as possible.
o Check your cables regularly and label each end for easy identification.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
For your own safety and to avoid invalidation of the warranty please
read this section carefully.
The FOLIO SX mixer must only be connected through the Power Supply supplied.
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Earth: Green and Yellow (Green/Yellow - US)
Neutral: Blue (White - US)
Live: Brown (Black - US)
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in
your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured Green and Yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the
letter E or by the earth symbol.
The wire which is coloured Blue must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter N.
The wire which is coloured Brown must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter L.
Ensure that these colour codings are followed carefully in the event of the plug being changed.
To avoid the risk of fire, replace the mains fuse only with the correct value fuse, as
indicated on the power supply.
