1 Captive screw power input connector — Connect the included
12 VDC external power supply into the 2-pole 3.5 mm captive
screw connector. Be careful to observe the correct polarity.
Do not tin the power supply leads before installing them
in the connector. Tinned wires are not as secure in the
connectors and could be pulled out.

The two power supply leads must be kept separated
while the power supply is plugged into an electrical
outlet. Remove power before wiring.
CAUTION Power supply voltage polarity is critical. Incorrect
voltage polarity can damage the power supply and
the MIX 301. Identify the power cord negative lead
by the ridges on the side of the cord.
The length of the exposed (stripped) copper wires is
important. The ideal length is 0.2" (5 mm).
Longer bare wires can short together. Shorter
wires are not as secure in the direct insertion
connectors and could be pulled out.
To verify the polarity before connection, check the no load
power supply output with a voltmeter.
2 Power LED — Lights green to indicate that the MIX 301 has
power.
3 4 5 Balanced/unbalanced input connectors (IN 1, IN 2, IN 3) —
The balanced/unbalanced mono audio input is wired to a
3-pole, 3.5 mm captive screw connector. Wire the connector as
shown below.
Do not tin the connector leads before installing them in
the connector. Tinned wires are not as secure in the
connectors and could be pulled out. For further wiring
details, see the included “Cable Preparation For Audio
Connections” card.

output is wired to a 3-pole, 3.5 mm captive screw connector.
Wire the connector as shown below for balanced or unbalanced
output devices.
Do not tin the connector leads before installing them in
the connector. Tinned wires are not as secure in the
connectors and could be pulled out. For further wiring
