Chapter 2 : ProFXv3+ Rear Panel Features
Introduction
The top panel of each ProFXv3+ mixer may be where the magic all happens,
but nothing will happen if it can’t be powered up, so let’s start there! The rear panel
of each ProFXv3+ mixer is oufitted with a power connector, power switch, and a USB-C
port for connecting to a computer. Let’s take a look at each of these features, starting
with the power connector and power switch, followed by a look at the USB-C port.
Power Connector [ProFX6v3+ and ProFX10v3+]
Each ProFX6v3+ and ProFX10v3+ has a universal external power supply that accepts
any AC voltage ranging from 00 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 2 VDC power supply [aka The Power Block] and a line cord are included
with the ProFXv3+ 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 ProFXv3+ 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 outlet. An LED on The Power Block
will illuminate green to indicate success (whether the ProFXv3+ 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!
