DA824—Owner’s Manual
Cautions
•
Allow enough free space around the unit for normal ventilation. This should be: 10 cm
at the sides, 15 cm behind, and 30 cm above. These distances should also be adopted
when rack-mounting the DA824. For normal ventilation during use, remove the rear
of the rack or open a ventilation hole. If the airflow is not adequate, the DA824 will heat
up inside and may cause a fire.
•
Use the DA824 in an environment where the temperature is between 10˚C and 35˚C
(50˚F and 95˚F).
•
Turn off audio devices when connecting them to the DA824, and use only the cables
specified in the relevant owner’s manuals.
•
If you plan not to use the DA824 for a long period of time, remove the power cord from
the AC outlet. Leaving the DA824 connected is a potential fire hazard.
•
Do not use benzene, thinner, cleaning detergent, or a chemical cloth to clean the
DA824. Use only a soft, dry cloth.
•
If the DA824 is stored in a cold place (e.g., overnight in a car), and then moved to a
warmer environment, or the temperature rises sharply, condensation may form inside
the DA824, which may affect performance. In such cases, the DA824 should be allowed
to acclimatize for about one hour before use.
•
When the wordclock source is changed, the DA824’s analog outputs may produce
noise, especially if an MY8-AT I/O card is installed, so turn down your power amps
beforehand. Likewise, when changing the wordclock source on the wordclock master
device (e.g., AD824 or DME32), turn down your power amps beforehand, or turn off
the DA824.
Interference
The DA824 uses high-frequency digital circuits that may cause interference on radio
and television equipment located nearby. If interference is a problem, relocate the
affected equipment.

ing personal injury or any other damage caused by improper use or operation of the
