Use the POWER switch to switch the BX3000T on or off.
You should always make sure that the POWER switch is in
the “Off” position when initially connecting the unit to the
mains.
To disconnect the unit from the mains, pull out the main cord
plug. When installing the product, ensure that the plug is
easily accessible. If mounting in a rack, ensure that the
mains can be easily disconnected by a plug or by an all-pole
disconnect switch on or near the rack.
+
Please note: Merely switching the unit off does not
mean that it is fully disconnected from the mains.
When not using the unit for prolonged periods of
time, please unplug the unit’s power cord from the
power outlet.
MAINS CONNECTION. Use the power cord supplied with
the unit to connect it to the mains.
FUSE HOLDER/VOLTAGE SELECTOR. Before
connecting the unit to the mains, make sure that the voltage
setting matches your local voltage. A blown fuse should
only be replaced by a fuse of the same type and rating. On
some units, the fuse holder can be switched to one of two
positions, i.e. 230 V and 120 V. When operating the unit
outside Europe at 120 V, a higher fuse rating is required.
SERIAL NUMBER. Please take the time to fill in and return
the warranty card within 14 days after the date of purchase,
so as to benefit from our extended warranty. Or register
online at www.behringer.com.

Use the SPEAKER outputs to connect your loudspeakers.
The outputs are wired in parallel on two 1/4" jacks and a
SPEAKON ® connector.
+
Your speaker cabinets should have a sufficient
power rating (>300 W) and preferably a total
impedance of 4 W to avoid speaker damage. Too
high a load impedance will decrease the output
power rating of the power stage!
+
For correct speaker connection please also refer
to chapters 3.3, 3.3.1 and 6.2.1!

phantom power is switched off on the respective channel of
your mixer!
