    Treat your Kamesan KS-T2000 in the same way that you would 
    treat any piece of precision equipment. Although it is designed 
    for rugged location use in a wide range of extreme conditions:
    • Avoid spilling liquid over the unit or exposing it to extremely 
    humid environments. 
     Do not subject the unit to extreme temperature changes, as 
    this may cause internal condensation, affecting the opera-
    tion of the unit.
     Avoid operating the unit in extreme temperature conditions 
    wherever possible.
     Avoid using the unit in dusty or smoky locations wherever 
    possible
     When cleaning the unit, never use solvents or thinner to 
    clean the outside of the case. Only use a soft damp cloth to 
    wipe off any dirt or stains.
     Only use power supplies (batteries and external power sup-
    plies) as recommended in this manual.
    Connection of microphone cables and microphones: to prevent 
    hazard or damage, ensure that only microphone cables and micro-
    phones designed to the IEC 268-15A standard are connected.
    Connexions des microphones et de leurs câbles: pour éviter tout 
    endommagement, s’assurer de brancher uniquement des micro-
    phones et des câbles de microphones conçus selon la norme IEC 
    268-15A.
     When using microphones, make sure that the phantom 
    power is set appropriately for the microphones. Use of +48 V 
    phantom power with microphones not designed for this may 
    result in damage to the microphones, and to the Kamesan 
    KS-T2000.
    In the event of encountering problems with the Kamesan KS-
    T2000, you should contact your local after-sales representative.

    Before\
    Before operating the Kamesan KS-T2000, you should be aware 
    of the following points:
     All XLR connectors (male and female) are wired with the fol-
    lowing pinouts: 1=ground, 2=hot, 3=cold.
     The AC adaptor jack is a tip-negative connection. DO NOT 
    attempt to make any connection to this jack except using an 
    AC adaptor authorized by Kamesan.
     Always remove any dead batteries immediately from the 
    Kamesan KS-T2000, and remove any batteries from the unit 
    if it will not be used for some time. Corroded and leaking 
    batteries can cause severe damage to the unit.
    Keep this manual in a convenient location for handy reference.
    Any labels on the unit mentioned in the manual are shown in 
    this typeface: OUTPUT.
    Sometimes you will see a note—important information which 
    you should note.
    Failure to read and observe notes and warnings may result in per-
    sonal injury and/or possible damage to the unit.

    The Kamesan KS-T2000 is supplied with everything you need to 
    start work.
    However, you can purchase the following, in order to increase 
    the capabilities and the functionality of the unit:
     Power adaptors: you can use the Kamesan PS-M12 mini 
    power supply.
     Spare battery holders, allowing you to slip in a new power 
    source at a moment’s notice.
    The Kamesan KS-T2000 case is designed to hold and protect the 
    unit against any wear and tear under the standard conditions of 
    use for which the mixer is designed. In addition, the mixer itself 
    has been designed to be rugged and to stand up to the demands 
    that will be made of it in its expected life.
    Even so, you should not drop the mixer, or subject it to violent 
    shocks or vibration. Always keep the mixer in its case to avoid 
    any possible damage.
    If you remove the mixer from the case, and then replace it, al-
    ways make sure the case clip fits over the lip at the top of the 
    mixer front panel.
    The touch fasteners at either side may be used to tidy cables, as 
    well as to restrain the mixer in its case.
    You can use the side pocket in the case to store spare batteries, 
    adaptors, etc.
    You can secure the top flap using the touch fastener when it is 
    folded back to allow operation of the front panel.
    Accessories, etc.

    The Kamesan KS-T2000 controls and connections can be divid-
    ed conveniently into three sections: the input section, the out-
    put section, and the front panel.
    The input side of the unit (on the left as you look at the front) is 
    as follows):
    Always make and break connections to and from the Kamesan KS-
    T2000 with the power to the mixer and to all other equipment 
    turned OFF.
    The mixer can accept a number of different sources at the three 
    XLR input jacks. The type of input for each channel is selected 
    using the channel input mode selector rotary switches:

    Connect balanced cables from microphones to the XLR inputs, 
    and set the switches appropriately:
    Always make sure that the input mode selected for each channel 
    matches the device connected to the channel BEFORE turning on 
    the power. Selecting the wrong type of device could result in dam-
    age to equipment. If you have to change the input mode with the 
    power connector, turn down both the input level faders and the 
    monitoring level before changing the input mode.
    For full details of the levels, impedances, etc. of these jacks, see 
    the section on “Specifications” on page 19.
    The illustration above shows the Kamesan KS-T2000 connected 
    to a pair of microphones as well as to a wireless receiver. 
    Note that there is one more input connection ( the external mon-
    itoring input) which may be made to the Kamesan KS-T2000, as 
    explained below:
    The Kamesan KS-T2000 allows you to input a stereo signal via a 
    mini 3.5 mm jack to the MONI IN input. This signal should be at 
    a nominal –10 dBV level.
    The front panel switch controls whether this output is monitored 
    or not through the headphones. The level cannot be changed.

    There are two sets of connections available from the Kamesan 
    KS-T2000: the main balanced connectors and the unbalanced 
    RCA connectors.:
    You can use these different connectors for professional and 
    semi-professional video equipmen
    When you make the connections to the balanced connectors, 
    note that there are two switch positions for the level of these out-
    puts: +4 and –60. Make sure that you make the appropriate level 
    setting for the device connected to the Kamesan KS-T2000.
