Important Safety Instructions

Terminals marked with this symbol carry an electrical current of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock. Use only high-quality professional speaker cables with ¼” TS or twist-locking plugs pre-installed. All other installations or modifications should be performed only by qualified personnel.
This symbol, wherever it appears, alerts you to the presence of uninsulated dangerous voltage inside the enclosure – voltage that may be sufficient to constitute a risk of shock.
This symbol, wherever it appears, alerts you to important operating and maintenance instructions in the accompanying literature. Please read the manual.
Caution To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the top cover (or the rear section). No user-serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified personnel.
Caution To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this appliance to rain and moisture. The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing liquids and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.
Caution These service instructions are for use by qualified service personnel only. To reduce the risk of electric shock do not perform any servicing other than that contained in the operation instructions. Repairs have to be performed by qualified service personnel.

ULTRA-DI PRO DI800 Hook-up

Step 1: Hook-Up

ULTRA-DI PRO DI800 Controls

The INPUT connector is used for connecting unbalanced as well as balanced signal sources.
Because both INPUT and LINK connectors are wired in parallel, the LINK TRS connector can be used both as an input and as a direct unbalanced output of
the INPUT signal. For the latter, you can for example connect LINK with the input of a monitor amplifier.
The unbalanced input signal can be tapped into at the UNBAL OUT TRS connector – after passing through the amplification circuitry (see (4) and (6) ).
The -30 dB PAD attenuation switch increases the operating range of the DI800 considerably, from low signal levels of a high-impedance mic or a guitar, all the way to speaker connectors of a guitar amplifier.
Using the GND LIFT switch, you can fully separate input and output grounding. Depending on how the equipment to which your DI800 is connected is grounded, using the GND LIFT switch lets you lower hum noise or ground loops. When the GND LIFT switch is depressed, the ground connection is interrupted (the LED is lit red). When the switch is in the PHANTOM OR MAINS POWER ON setting, the LED is lit green (when the GND LIFT switch is not pressed).
The +20 dB switch increases the input signal level by 20 dB.
Use the POWER switch to power up your DI800. The POWER switch should always be in the “Off” position when you are about to connect your unit to the mains.
The BAL OUT connectors (1 – 8) are the balanced mic-level outputs of the channels 1 to 8.
The main connection is achieved via the standard IEC connector.
