Samson PL2404 - Manual (Page 14)

Setting up your PL 2404 is a simple procedure which takes only a few minutes:
1. Remove all packing materials (save them in case of need for future service)
and decide where the unit is to be physically placed—it can be mounted in any
standard 19" rack, requiring four rack spaces, or used on a tabletop.
2. Before even plugging the unit into an AC socket, begin by connecting the
PL 2404 Main or Control Room outputs into a power amp and the amp into
loudspeakers (you’ll usually connect the Main output to a power amp in live
performance environments and the Control Room output to a power amp when
using the PL 2404 for recording). It is never a good idea to power up any
amplifier that is not connected to loudspeakers.
3. Next, make the signal input connections to the mic or line inputs of the
various channels. WARNING: When using channel 1 or 3, do not connect its
microphone input and line input simultaneously; these channels are designed to
accept only one source or the other.
4. Turn all channel Level controls fully counterclockwise (to their “
∞” setting),
bring all four bus faders completely down (to their “
∞” setting), and set the Main
and Control Room Level controls fully counterclockwise (to their “
∞” setting.
If you are using the channel 1 or 3 mic inputs, set their Trim controls fully
counterclockwise (to their “+4” setting). Then connect the EEC main power cord
and plug the PL 2404 into any grounded AC socket.
5. Turn on the rear panel Power switch—the “Power” LED in the main section
will light up.
