INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS
The following counsels must be observed to maintain safety and electromagnetic compatibility performance in order
to obtain the best possible performances by your Typhoon.
Earthing & Power Connections
Please try to avoid placing the console close/on any power distribution units or power amplifiers.
When using an external power supply, it should be located as far as possible from the console.
The power supply should be set for the voltage supply available in your area and plugged into the mains socket using
the cable provided with the ground/screen connector properly connected. The Typhoon should only be operated with
the power supply connected to ground via the ground in the mains connector. The use of alternative power supplies
may cause damage and void the warranty.
The power supply should never be operated with the mains earth disconnected
Please note that the power supply contains DANGEROUS VOLTAGES, much stronger than the mains voltage.
The power supply rails can produce extremely large currents which could burn out equipment and wiring if shorted.
Electric & Magnetic Fields
When the console is operated close to an electromagnetic field (generated by video monitors, high-power electric
cabling, etc.), you should detect an audio degradation induced by voltage picked up by leads and chassis. In this case
the signal to noise ratio may be degraded, under extreme conditions (3V/m, 90% modulation) degradation of up to
40dB may be experienced.
Wiring
To ensure the correct and reliable operation of your Typhoon mixing console, only high quality screened twisted pair
audio cable and metal bodied connectors should be used.
Position
Place the mixing console on a flat and even surface, avoiding extremely hot, cold, dust or humid places.
Your Typhoon should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation (e.g. on
a carpet, on felt, etc.).
When positioning the console for front of house usage it is worth placing the console in the " " positionsweet spot
(where the sound system used can be properly heard from the mix position). Try to avoid placing the console behind
pillars or large objects , or mixing from a level above the speaker position (e.g. from a balcony).
WARNING: Always switch off the power supply off before connecting or disconnecting the mixer power cable,
removing or installing modules, and servicing. In the event of an electric storm or large mains voltage fluc-
tuations, immediately switch off your Typhoon and disconnect the mains plug from its socket.
WARNING: Do not replace the fuse with any other type, or short-circuit the broken fuse, this could become
a safety hazard and will void the warranty.
WARNING: All servicing should ONLY be carried out by skilled personnel of an authorized maintenance centre.

Since all the signals are referenced to earthing system, it's very important that it's clean and noise free. The best way
to do an earthing system is to use a "star fed" instead of "daisy chain". A "star fed" earth connection means that in-
dependent wires runs for each outlet, in this way you'll provide a safety reference screen for each single equipment.
Never mix the mains audio earthing outlets with light earthing outlets, it could very easily generate interferences and
audio degradation.
