Safety precautions

Important information

Warning:

To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture.

Caution:

Do not expose this apparatus to drips or splashes. To avoid electric shock, do not open the cabinet. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only. Do not expose this apparatus to excessive heat such as that generated by sunshine, fire or other heat sources. Do not subject this apparatus to strong impact. This apparatus should be located close enough to the AC outlet so that you can easily grasp the power cord plug at any time. In case of emergency, disconnect the power cord plug of this apparatus quickly. Do not place any objects filled with liquids, such as vases, on this apparatus. To prevent fire, do not place any naked flame sources (such as lighted candles) on this apparatus. Do not install this apparatus in a confined space such as a bookcase or similar unit. Install this apparatus only in the places with good ventilation. This apparatus is not disconnected from the mains as long as it is connected to the AC outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned off.

For customers in the USA/Canada

CAUTION

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

DO NOT OPEN

Caution: To prevent electric shock, do not remove the cover. There are

no user-serviceable parts inside. Internal adjustments are for qualified professionals only. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of shock to persons.

The exclamation point symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the product.

Important safety instructions

1) Read these instructions.

2) Keep these instructions.

3) Heed all warnings.

4) Follow all instructions.

5) Do not use this apparatus near water.

6) Clean only with dr y cloth.

7) Do not block any of the ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

8) Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

9) Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10) Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

About Audio-Technica LINK

Up to six ATDM-0604 model mixers can be daisy-chained so that, as a whole system, it can handle audio inputs from 24 Mic channels, 12 Mic/Line channels, and 6 unbalanced stereo channels. The proprietary Audio-Technica LINK functionality enables the transmission of low-latency, high-speed audio bus signals between devices, making it possible to steadily control and transmit uncompressed audio signals. Furthermore, the model offers excellent workability as it conforms to the Ethernet standards and can be connected to generic LAN cables (shielded cables of Cat5e or above with the conductor diameter size of 24 AWG or larger are recommended).

Unbalanced connection

An unbalanced connection tends to be subject to induction noise caused by the chassis potential differences. Be sure to match the chassis potentials between devices.

• Match the power supply phases between devices.

• Standardize the power supply systems.

• Connect the GND (ground) terminal or chassis of each device.

Power cable connection

• Connect the power plug to the appropriate outlet with protective grounding. Electric shock may result if the plug is not grounded securely.

How to connect a Euroblock connector
