4、wer Connection Safety Warning Attention! Cables Electric Fields Mains power to the XL42 is supplied by means of a standard fused IEC power socket. The XL42 is designed to operate at nominal mains voltages of 115V and 230V AC at either 50 or 60 Hz, however, upon first use (and whenever the mains supp
5、ly is changed) the input voltage selector on the rear of the unit must be set to reflect the local power supply. This information is also printed on the rear of the unit, below the mains inlet socket. This device must be earthed and must use an approved mains fuse. Before connecting to the mains sup
6、ply, ensure the fuse fitted is the correct type and rating as indicated on the rear panel (adjacent to fuse holder) and that the correct mains supply voltage is selected. To completely disconnect this equipment from the AC mains, set the power switch to the off position. The power switch shall remai
7、n readily operable. Do not expose this equipment to dripping or splashing and ensure that no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, are placed on the equipment. For safety reasons the earth lead for this unit should never be disconnected. In the event of ground loop problems, under no circumsta
8、nces must the mains earth be removed. Instead, disconnect the signal screen at one end of the connecting cables. Please note that this can only be done when the unit is being used within a balanced system. To prevent shock or fire hazard, do not expose the unit to rain or moisture. To avoid electric
9、al shock do not remove covers. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only. The inputs and outputs are balanced on conventionally wired XLRs (pin 1 screen, pin 2 hot and pin 3 cold). This product should only be used with high quality, screened twisted pair audio cables, terminated with metal-bodied
10、3-pin XLR connectors. Any other cable type or configuration for the audio signals may result in degraded performance due to electromagnetic interference. The +48V phantom power can only be used with balanced cables. Should this product be used in an electromagnetic field that is amplitude modulated
11、by an audio frequency signal (20Hz to 20kHz), the signal to noise ratio may be degraded. Degradation of up to 60dB at a frequency corresponding to the modulation signal may be experienced under extreme conditions (3V/m, 90% modulation). No permanent damage or degradation of performance will be cause
12、d by these conditions. Note: Do not install this unit in a location subjected to excessive heat, dust or mechanical vibration. Allow for adequate ventilation around the unit, making sure the units vents are not obstructed. To avoid excessive heating of the unit, avoid mounting the unit directly abov
13、e power amplifiers or other devices that radiate significant amounts of heat. Where necessary, use fan-cooled racks. Before You StartBefore You Start XL42 Operators Manual - Page 2 Before unpacking the XL42, check packaging for signs of damage, as this could be an indication of damage to the unit in
14、side. After unpacking the XL42, check the unit for signs of damage to the casing. Damage to consignments must usually be reported to the courier within 24 hours in order for a claim to be made. Please retain the packaging for your XL42, as it will prove useful if you need to transport the unit. Plea
15、se also retain the XL42s Operators Manual (this document) and any other associated documentation.

The factory default setting
40、is post Output Level, Pan and Mute. Left / Right Output: Balanced XLR output from the channel strip. The output signal will be a combination of the link input plus the output from the XL42s input channels. If pan is selected on either of the inputs, the outputs will be a stereo combination of the in
41、put channels plus the link input. If pan is disabled on the channels, the output will be a combination of the input channel and the link input only. Please note that if one input channel has pan enabled and one does not, the channel with pan enabled obeys the pan law of the pan pot. However, no sign
42、al is introduced into the other output. Only when both channel pan switches are enabled does the unit enter full stereo mode, that is, either output can be a combination of either input.
