1 Precautions

The 224x is a well-behaved device; however,
precautions consistent with good practice for
any piece of audio gear must be observed as a
matter of course. Always use the correct ac
line voltage; before plugging in your 224x, see
Sec. 2.1 of this manual for power requirements.

Never attach power sources or audio power
amplifier outputs directly to any of the 24Xs
connectors. The 224Xs inputs are designed
for line-level signals. If a power amplifier is
used as a signal input, a suitable attenuator
pad must be used to lower the feed into the
24x. Before turning your 224x on or off,
3 lower the volume on your power amplifier or
monitoring system to avoid undesirable
transients.

To prevent fire or shock, never operate the
24X in the rain or in exposed wet locations.

The 224x employs a NiCad battery pack to
power 36 nonvolatile random access memory
(RAM) registers, allowing users to store modi-
fications to programs intact-even when the
main power is off. If the unit is not used for
three months, the battery pack could lose its
charge, and the user-modified parameter set-
tings that were stored could be accidentally
erased. Therefore, if the unit is not used for a
long time, charge the battery pack monthly by
turning the main power on for a few hours.

The 224x requires limited periodic mainte-
nance-see Sec. 6.

Unpacking and Inspection

After unpacking the 24x and LARC, save all
packing materials for reshipment. Thoroughly
inspect the 24x, LARC, and packing materi-
als for signs of damage. Report any damage
to the carrier.
