TABLE OF CONTENTS

1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Before installation or use, be sure to carefully read all the instructions in this section for correct and safe operation.

• Be sure to follow all the precautionary instructions in this section, which contain important warnings and/or cautions regarding safety.

• After reading, keep this manual handy for future reference.

When Installing the Unit

• Do not expose the unit to rain or an environment where it may be splashed by water or other liquids, as doing so may result in fire or electric shock.

• Use the unit only with the voltage specified on the unit. Using a voltage higher than that which is specified may result in fire or electric shock.

• (Applicable to VX-2000DS, VX-200PS, VP-2064, VP-2122, VP-2241, and VP-2421 only) Do not cut, kink, otherwise damage nor modify the power supply cord. In addition, avoid using the power cord in close proximity to heaters, and never place heavy objects -- including the unit itself -- on the power cord, as doing so may result in fire or electric shock.

• (Applicable to RM-200SF, RM-200SA, RM-210, and RM-200RJ only) Avoid installing or mounting the unit in unstable locations, such as on a rickety table or a slanted surface. Doing so may result in the unit falling down and causing personal injury and/or property damage.

• (Applicable to RM-200SF, RM-200SA, RM-210, and RM-200RJ only) Install the unit only in a location that can structurally support the weight of the unit and the mounting bracket. Doing otherwise may result in the unit falling down and causing personal injury and/or property damage.

• Since the unit is designed for in-door use, do not install it outdoors. If installed outdoors, the aging of parts causes the unit to fall off, resulting in personal injury. Also, when it gets wet with rain, there is a danger of electric shock.

When the Unit is in Use

• Should the following irregularity be found during use, immediately switch off the main power (or circuit breaker), and contact your nearest TOA dealer. Make no further attempt to operate the unit in this condition as this may cause fire or electric shock.

· If you detect smoke or a strange smell coming from the unit.

· If water or any metallic object gets into the unit

· If the unit falls, or the unit case breaks

· (Applicable to VX-2000DS and VX-200PS only)

If the power supply cord is damaged (exposure of the core, disconnection, etc.)

· If it is malfunctioning (no tone sounds.)

• To prevent a fire or electric shock, never open the unit case nor modify the unit. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

• Do not place cups, bowls, or other containers of liquid or metallic objects on top of the unit. If they accidentally spill into the unit, this may cause a fire or electric shock.

• (Applicable to VX-2000DS, VX-200PS, VP-2064, VP-2122, VP-2241, and VP-2421 only) Do not insert nor drop metallic objects or flammable materials in the ventilation slots of the unit's cover as this may result in fire or electric shock.

• (Applicable to VX-2000DS and VX-200PS only) Do not touch a power supply plug during thunder and lightning, as this may result in electric shock.

• (Applicable to VX-200PS only) When replacing the fuse, be sure to use the supplied one (3.15 A). Using any other fuse than supplied may cause fire or electric shock.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if mishandled, could result in death or serious personal injury.

WARNING

When Installing the Unit

• (Applicable to VX-2000DS and VX-200PS only)

Never plug in nor remove the power supply plug with wet hands, as doing so may cause electric shock.

• (Applicable to VX-2000DS and VX-200PS only)

When unplugging the power supply cord, be sure to grasp the power supply plug; never pull on the cord itself. Operating the unit with a damaged power supply cord may cause a fire or electric shock.

• (Applicable to VX-2000DS, VX-200PS, VP-2064, VP-2122, VP-2241, and VP-2421 only)

Do not block the ventilation slots in the unit's cover. Doing so may cause heat to build up inside the unit and result in fire.

•

Avoid installing the unit in humid or dusty locations, in locations exposed to the direct sunlight, near the heaters, or in locations generating sooty smoke or steam as doing otherwise may result in fire or electric shock.

• Note correct polarity (positive and negative orientation) when connecting the power supply cord. Reversed polarity connections will cause damage to the amplifier.

• System units (except remote microphones) are designed exclusively to be mounted in an equipment rack. Be sure to observe the following instructions when rack-mounting the unit. Failure to do so may cause a fire or personal injury.

· Install the equipment rack on a stable, hard floor. Fix it with anchor bolts or take other arrangements to

prevent it from falling down.

· When connecting the power cord of the DC power supply panel for the units to an AC outlet, ensure that

the total load current never exceeds the AC outlet's allowable current capacity.

· The supplied rack-mounting screws can be used for the TOA equipment rack only. Do not use them for

other racks.

• (Applicable to VX-2000DS only) Note correct polarity (positive and negative orientation) when connecting the power supply cord. Reversed polarity connections will cause damage to the system.

When the Unit is in Use

• (Applicable to VP-2064, VP-2122, VP-2241, and VP-2421 only) Do not operate the unit for an extended period of time with the sound distorting. This is an indication of a malfunction, which in turn can cause heat to generate and result in a fire.

• Use the specified power supply unit for the system. Note that the use of other power supply unit may cause a fire.

• (Applicable to VX-2000DS only) Make sure to observe the following handling precautions so that a fire or personal injury does not result from leakage or explosion of the battery.

· Do not short, disassemble, heat nor put the battery into a fire.

· Avoid using both new and old batteries together.

· Never charge batteries of the type which are not rechargeable.

· Do not solder a battery directly.

· Be sure to use the specified type of batteries.

· Note correct polarity (positive and negative orientation) when connecting a battery to the unit.

· Avoid locations exposed to the direct sunlight, high temperature and high humidity when storing batteries.

• (Applicable to RM-200SF and RM-200SA only) Have the unit checked periodically by the shop from where it was purchased. Failure to do so may result in corrosion or damage to the unit or its mounting bracket that could cause the unit to fall, possibly causing personal injury.

• (Applicable to VX-200PS only) Contact your TOA dealer as to the cleaning. If dust is allowed to accumulate in the unit over a long period of time, a fire or damage to the unit may result.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if mishandled, could result in moderate or minor personal injury, and/or property damage.
