Quick Reference Guide
Precautions
Before installing, setting up or operating this equipment make sure you have read and
fully understand all of this section and the “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS” at the
front of this guide.
This equipment is supplied by a mains voltage that can cause electric shock injury!
The following must be observed in order to maintain safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
performance.
Safety warnings
Signal 0V is connected internally to the
chassis.
To completely disconnect this equipment from
the AC mains, while observing full safety
precautions (see “Power” on page ix), switch off
the isolator switch (above the mains power
sockets on rear of control centre) and then
switch off the mains at the three mains outlets.
Unplug the three mains leads from the rear of
the control centre.
To avoid electrical shock do not remove
covers.
General precautions
In the event of ground loop problems,
disconnect the signal screen at one end of the
connecting cables. Note that this can only be
done when the equipment is used within a
balanced system.
Do not remove, hide or deface any warnings or
cautions.
Power
The system power supplies contain LETHAL
VOLTAGES greatly in excess of the mains
voltage and its rails can produce extremely large
currents that could burn out equipment and
wiring if shorted.
The internal power supplies are of the switch
mode type that automatically sense the
incoming mains voltage and will work where the
nominal voltage is in the range 100VAC to
240VAC.
Each mains inlet is to be sourced from its own
separate wall-mounted mains outlet socket.
Otherwise, their mains sources must be suitably
distributed so as to meet local safety
regulations.
During operation, a minimum of two of its three
mains inlets must be connected and supplying
power.
When removing the equipment’s electric plugs
from the outlets, always hold the plug itself and
not the cable. Pulling out the plug by the cable
can damage it.
Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet
hands.
Do not connect/disconnect a mains power
connector to/from the PRO6 Control Centre
while power is being applied to it. Switch the
power off first.
Before switching the PRO6 Control Centre on or
off, make sure that all monitor loudspeaker
power amplifiers are turned off or muted.
Handling the equipment
Completely isolate the equipment electrically
and disconnect all cables from the equipment
before moving it.
When lifting or moving the equipment, always
take its size and weight into consideration. Use
suitable lifting equipment or transporting gear,
or sufficient additional personnel.
Do not insert your fingers or hand in any gaps or
openings on the equipment, for example, vents.
Do not press or rub on the sensitive surface of
the GUI screens.
If the glass of the GUI screen is broken, liquid
crystals shouldn’t leak through the break due to
the surface tension of the thin layer and the
type of construction of the LCD panel. However,
in the unlikely event that you do make contact
with this substance, wash it out with soap.
