Chapter 3 : Mixer Hardware – DL Series : Rear Panel
Rear Panel Introduction
Each DL Series mixer is outtted with a power connector, a power switch
(and corresponding LED), a phantom power switch (and corresponding LED),
L/R XLR main output jacks, a Kensington lock, a network connector and a force
update button. In fact, the only functional dierence between the two is that the
DL1608 has 16 input jacks and six aux sends jacks, whereas the DL806 has eight
input jacks and four aux send jacks. Even though those numbers may vary slightly,
their function is the same. Let’s take a look, shall we?
Power Connector
DL Series mixers have a universal external power supply that accepts any AC voltage
ranging from 100 VAC to 240 VAC. No need for voltage select switches. It will work
virtually anywhere in the world. That’s why we call it a “Planet Earth” power supply!
It is less susceptible to voltage sags or spikes compared to conventional power
supplies, and provides greater electromagnetic isolation and better protection
against AC line noise.
An external 12V DC
power supply [aka The Power Block] and a line cord are included
with the mixer. A locking barrel connector resides at the end of the cord attached to
The Power Block. Attach it to the power connector on the mixer and rotate the
outer ring clockwise to lock. Do not over-tighten! Screw until there is resistance, then
stop. Connect the female end of the line cord to The Power Block and plug the male
end into a live grounded AC outlet. An LED on The Power Block will illuminate green
to indicate success (whether the mixer is powered on or not).
Warning: Disconnecting the plug’s ground pin is dangerous. Don’t do it!
In fact, it’s a bad idea to remove anything from (or add anything to)
The Power Block or line cord. Again, don’t do it!
