Behringer U-CONTROL UMA25S Manual - Page 6

6 U-CONTROL UMA25S User Manual External power supply: If you neither want to draw the power supply via USB nor power the device with batteries, there is yet another possibility to connect the UMA25S to an external power supply unit. Please observe the correct operational data (DC 9 V; 200 mA) and correct polarity of the connector. Further information can be found above the DC input on the rear panel of the device. Reverse polarity may cause damage to the electronics. IMPORTANT Installation information: ◊ The sound quality may diminish within the range of powerful broadcasting stations and high-frequency sources. Increase the distance between the transmitter and the device and use shielded cables for all connections. 1.3 Hardware configuration To connect the UMA25S to your computer, use the provided USB cable. Connect the supplied headset as shown in Fig. 1.3. Optionally, hook up further units to the UMA25S as can be seen from the diagram. ◊ Some headsets may cause interferences (humming). Should this be the case, make sure the UMA25S is sufficiently grounded, for example, by connecting a grounded mixer to the LINE OUT connectors. If necessary, reduce the microphones's input volume level with the LEVEL control (19).
