Always use a grounded outlet and plug. Do not use a ground- lifting adapter or cut the AC cable ground pin. CAUTION: Keep all liquids away from the UPM-1P and UPM-2P to avoid hazards from electrical shock.
All UPM-1P and UPM-2P loudspeakers are equipped standard with the looping audio input module (Figure 2.2), Figure 2.1. The user panel of the UPM-1P with standard looping Pins 2 and 3 carry the input as a differential signal; pin audio input module and optional RMS 2 is hot relative to pin 3, resulting in a positive pressure wave when a positive signal is applied to pin 2.

This section contains possible solutions to common prob- 4. Hum or noise can be produced by a ground loop. Since lems encountered by UPM-1P and UPM-2P loudspeaker the UPM-1P and UPM-2P are effectively ground-lifted, users and is not intended to be a comprehensive trouble- the loop must be broken elsewhere in the system.
