4. INSTALLATION
4.1 Mains voltage
Before connecting the PMX2000 to the mains, please
carefully check that your equipment is set to the correct
voltage! Blown fuses must be replaced by fuses of the same
type and rating!
4.2 Mains connection
The mains connection is made using the enclosed power cord
and a standard IEC receptacle. It meets all of the international
safety certification requirements.
Please make sure that all units have a proper
ground connection. For your own safety, never
remove or disable the ground conductor from the
unit or of the AC power cord.
4.3 Audio connections
The in and outputs of your BEHRINGER PMX2000 are de-
signed as unbalanced 1/4" mono jacks—except for the mono
channel line inputs, which come as balanced 1/4" stereo jacks. Of
course, all in and outputs work with both balanced and unbalanced
connectors. The tape ins and outs are on stereo RCA connectors.
Please ensure that only qualified personnel install
and operate the PMX2000. During installation and
operation, the user must have sufficient electrical
contact to earth. Electrostatic charges might affect
the operation of the unit.

4.4 Loudspeaker connections
Your PMX2000 is equipped with high-quality NEUTRIK NL4MP
SPEAKON
®
connectors which ensure safe and trouble-free
operation. The SPEAKON
®
connector was especially developed
for high-power loudspeakers. Once it is plugged in, it safely locks
into its position and cannot be accidentaly disengaged. It prevents
the occurrence of electrical shock and ensures the correct polarity.
Each of the SPEAKON
®
jacks carries only the assigned single
signal (see tab. 4.1/fig. 4.6 and PMX2000 rear panel printing).

connector
Please be sure to only use commercial SPEAKON
®
cables (type
NL4FC) for connecting your loudspeakers to the PMX2000. Please
check the pin assignment of your loudspeakers and cables
dependent on the PMX2000 speaker output you choose.
