SYSTEM SETUP RACK MOUNTING THE SCM800/E To mount an SCM800 or SCM800E in a standard 483 mm (19-inch) audio equipment rack so that the front panel faces out, as shown in Figure 4. Then secure secure the mixer to the rack with the four supplied Phillips head screws. RACK MOUNTING THE SCM800/E FIGURE 4 SCM800/E CONNECTIONS Refer to Figure 5 and proceed as follows: TO STEREO OR MONO HEADPHONES 1. Connect microphone- or line-level signal sources to the FROM AUX– OR LINE–LEVEL SOURCE Channel Inpu

LINKING MULTIPLE SCM800 MIXERS Up to four SCM800 mixers can be “linked” using the supplied link cables If additional inputs are needed. Such a configura- tion can provide 32 mic inputs. Refer to Figure 6. When multiple SCM800 mixers are linked, all input signals ap- pear at all linked mixer outputs––there is no master-slave rela- tionship. The output controls and functions of each linked mix- er are post-link and do not affect the signals appearing at other linked mixer outputs. Each mixer’s Ma

BASIC MIXER OPERATION 1. Turn on the Power switch. 5. Adjust the SCM800 Master level control for the desired output level, as indicated by the output peak meter. 2. Adjust each channel level so that its Overload LED flick- ers only during very loud speech or noise. 6. Adjust the headphones volume level with the PHONES control knob. 3. Turn unused channel controls full counterclockwise. 4. Adjust the Low-Cut and High-Frequency controls adja- cent to each Input Gain control until all microphon
