PSB-14U AC Adapter
Power cord
to an AC outlet
Indicator
Place the AC adapter so that the side with the indicator (see
illustration) faces upwards and the side with textual information
faces downwards.
NOTE
Depending on your region, the included power cord may dier
from the one shown above.
NOTE
Be sure to use only the AC adaptor supplied with the unit
(PSB-14U). Also, make sure the line voltage at the installation
matches the input voltage specied on the AC adapter body.
Other AC adapters may use a dierent polarity, or be designed
for a dierent voltage, so their use could result in damage,
malfunction, or electric shock.
NOTE
If you won’t be using the FR-8x for an extended period of time,
disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.
3. Connect the AC adaptor to FR-8x’s DC IN jack.
4. Plug the power cord into a power outlet.
The indicator will light once you plug the AC adaptor into a wall
outlet
NOTE
To prevent the inadvertent disruption of power to your unit
(should the plug be pulled out accidentally), and to avoid
applying undue stress to the AC adaptor jack, anchor the power
cord. See “Securing the AC Adapter cable” (p. 25).
Connecting the FR-8x to an Amplication
System
The FR-8x is equipped with an internal speaker system and thus
does not need to be connected to an amplier at all. There may
be times, however when using an external amplication system is
more convenient.
1. Turn the [VOLUME] knob all the way to the left to
minimize the volume.
2. Switch o all device to which you are connecting the
FR-8x.
3. Connect the FR-8x’s OUTPUT jacks to the inputs of your
external device.
Please choose unbalanced (mono) cables with 1/4” jacks at
one end (for the FR-8x). The connectors at the other end need
to match the input sockets of the device to which you are
connecting the FR-8x.

NOTE
If you use a commercially available wireless transmitter, the
FR-8x’s output signals may distort. In that case, change the
FR-8x’s output level (see “OUTPUT LEVEL” (p. 106).
NOTE
If your amplier is monaural, you only need to connect the L/
MONO socket.
NOTE
To prevent malfunction and equipment failure, always turn
down the volume and turn o all units before making any
connections.
