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 electric shock to persons.

"WARNING"

"TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK,
DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE."

Thank you for purchasing the Fostex Model COP-1/96k.
The COP-1/96k is a digital signal (sampling frequency: 32kHz~96kHz) conversion adaptor for
converting "Light (OPTICAL) to Coaxial (COAXIAL)" or "Coaxial (COAXIAL) to Light (OPTICAL)."
The COP-1/96k allows you to connect digital equipment with differing digital input and output
connections for digital signal copying*. The COP-1/96k makes it possible to use a DAT recorder
that only has a coaxial digital signal input and output connectors as the master recorder for
use with the Fostex Digital Multitracker.

<Notes>

* Digital copying is not possible if the source material is protected by SCMS.
* Connect the AC adaptor only to a wall outlet that meets the conditions stated in the Specification Chart.

Failure to do so could be extremely dangerous and may result in fire or electric shock.
