INSTALLATION
To ensure years of enjoyment from your NADY AUDIO SRM-10X mixing console, please read and understand this manual thoroughly before using the unit.
1. INSPECTION
Your NADY AUDIO SRM-10X was carefully packed at the factory in packaging designed to protect the units in shipment. Before installing and using your unit, carefully examine the packaging and all contents for any signs of physical damage that may have occurred in transit.
[Please note: Nady Systems is not responsible for shipping damage. If your unit is damaged, do not return to Nady, but notify your dealer and the shipping company (if shipped to you) immediately to make a claim. Such claims must be made by the consignee in a timely manner.]
2. POWER CONNECTION
The SRM-10X is designed to operate with the supplied external power supply unit (PSU). Please make sure that the power unit supplied is marked for the correct voltage in your area (120VAC/60 Hz or 230VAC/50Hz). Power requirements for electrical equipment differ from area to area. In new installations and portable sound systems, or any situation in which the AC power is in question, it is wise to confirm the voltage and use the appropriate power supply unit before connecting it to power sources.
Check to see that the unit is set to the voltage for your area by referring to the table below:
Europe (except UK): 230V, 50Hz
UK and Australia: 240V, 50Hz
USA and Canada: 120V, 60 Hz
For other areas, please check with local authorities.
Do not connect the PSU to the SRM-10X while the PSU is connected to the AC mains supply. Connect the switched-off SRM-10X and PSU first before you connect the PSU to the mains supply. Lastly switch on the SRM-10X with the power switch on the back panel. Use only the correct NADY power supply unit to connect the SRM-10X to the Mains AC power.
