The

DC

output

Adaptor

should

be

connected

here.

When

connecting

the

power

supply,

make

sure

that

the

FX500

POWER

switch

is

in

the

OFF

position

(extended).

Plug

the

O

CAUTION!

Do

not

attempt

to

use

a

different

AC

adaptor

to

power

the

FX500.

The

use

of

an

incompatible

may

cause

irreparable

damage

to

the

FX500,

and

might

pose

a

serious

shock

hazard!

jack

described

in

the

following

section.

It

is

important

to

note,

however,

that

only

one

of

the

INPUT

can

be

used

at

a

time.

If

Selector

This

is

used

to

match

the

output

level

of

the

FX500

to

the

input

sensitivity

of

the

amplifier,

mixing

console

or

other

device

it is

feeding.

For

compatibility

with

standard

line

-level

inputs

the

—10

dB

setting

should

be

appropriate,

while

the

—20

dB

setting

should

be

used

when

the

FX500

is

connected

to

a

high

—the

input

of

a

guitar

amplifier,

for

OUTPUT

R

and

L

Jacks

These

are

the

main

stereo

outputs

from

the

FX500.

We

recommend

using

both

outputs

and

connecting

them

to

the

corresponding

right

and

left

channels

of

a

stereo

sound

system,

since

the

full

impact

of

many

of

the

FX500

effects

can

only

be

appreciated

in

stereo.

if,

however,

only

a

is

available,

use

either

the
