Before connecting the DA80 to an AC outlet, make sure the
POWER switch is off (out position) and the MASTER VOLUME and
MIC/INST. LEVEL controls are rotated completely counter-clock-
wise. Connect the “IEC” cord to the AC INPUT on the rear of the
DA80 and to a grounded AC outlet.

Connect input devices to the LINE IN (keyboard, sound module, line
level from mixer, output from computer sound board), AUX/CD IN
(CD player, stereo receiver, audio mixer, video board, VCR) and or
MIC/INST. IN (microphone, electronic instrument). Make sure the
LINE, AUX/CD and MIC/INST. switches are all in the off (out) posi-
tion.

Depress the POWER switch to its On position. The POWER LED
will light when the power is on. If LED is not lit, check your AC outlet
connections and refer to the troubleshooting Section (pg. 12) of this
manual.

Adjust the audio controls with reference to the Controls and
Functions Section (pg. 5) of this manual

With the output levels of all the input devices at a minimum and the
MASTER VOLUME of the DA80 set half-way, slowly adjust the out-
put levels of each input device to a desired listening volume and
balance. If the MIC/INST. input is being used, adjust the MIC/INST
LEVEL until a good balance is achieved.

To acquire a balance of input devices through the LINE OUT (for
recording etc.) use the technique described above (#8) with the
exception of the MASTER VOLUME. The MASTER VOLUME con-
trols volume to the speakers and headphones and does not affect
the LINE OUT.
