CDC FOUR

Power supply matters

The CDC FOUR has an internal Power Supply Unit (PSU). The AC mains power

switch is located on the rear panel, integral with the IEC receptacle to which AC

mains is connected.

Removing the IEC cable from the rear receptacle will electrically isolate the CDC

FOUR from the AC mains supply.

It is always good operating practice to turn a mixer on BEFORE turning on the

amplifiers, etc., to which its outputs are connected. Similarly, always turn the

amplifiers off BEFORE turning the mixer OFF.

An IEC cable is supplied with the mixer to connect this to the AC mains supply.

The cable should be fitted with a mains plug suitable for your country; if this is not

the case, either obtain one of the appropriate type, or replace the fitted plug with

one of the correct type. Note the supply mains cable colour coding is as follows:

Mains connection Mains cable core colour
Live

Brown

Neutral

Blue

Earth (Ground)

Green/Yellow

The PSU in the CDC FOUR is a “Universal” type, and may be connected to any

AC mains supply voltage of between 90 and 260 V, and frequency 50 or 60 Hz.

The IEC receptacle is integrated with both the mixer’s power on/off switch and a

mains fuseholder (immediately above the connector). If it is necessary to replace

this fuse, please only do so with one of the same type and rating:

115 or 230 V AC

Fuse type

T2LA, 20 mm dia. anti-surge

Fuse Rating 2 A

Note that the integral fuseholder has storage space for a spare fuse.

This fuse is the only user-replaceable component the CDC FOUR contains. A

mains fuse should never be replaced without first making an attempt to ascertain

the reason for its failure. If you are unsure why the fuse failed, or if the replacement

fuse also fails immediately, consult your Cadac dealer.
