Please use the followingguidelines established by the Occupational Safety Health Administration (OSHA) on maximum time exposure to soundpressure levels before hearing damage occurs.90 dB SPL at 8 hours95 dB SPL at 4 hours100 dB SPL at 2 hours105 dB SPL at 1 hour110 dB SPL  at 1/2 hour115 dB SPL at 15 minutes120 dB SPL — avoid or damage may occurIt is difficult to measure the exact Sound Pressure Levels (SPL) present at the eardrum in live applications.  In additionto the volume setting on the PSM, the SPL in the ear is affected by ambient sound from floor wedges or other devices.The isolation provided by the fit of quality earpieces is also an important factor in determining the SPL in the ear.Here are some general tips to follow in the use of this product to protect your ears from damage:1. Turn up the volume control only far enough to hear properly.2. Ringing in the ears may indicate that the gain levels are too high.  Try lowering the gain levels.3. Have your ears checked by an audiologist on a regular basis.  If you experience wax buildup in your ears, stop usingthe system until an audiologist has examined your ears.4. Wipe the ear  molds with an antiseptic before and after use to avoid infections. Stop using the ear molds if they arecausing great discomfort or infection.This symbol indicates that dangerous voltage constituting a risk of electric shock is present within this unit.This symbol indicates that there are important operating and maintenance instructions in the literature accompanyingthis unit.FCC Statement.

8English  –INSTALLATION AND APPLICATIONSThe flexible design of the PSM700 Personal Stereo Monitor System makes configuring amonitor mix very simple.  In addition, the unique MixMode circuitry enables you to customizeyour own individual mix in a multiple mix environment.  To help you install the PSM700 intoyour sound system, the tables and diagrams in this section describe three distinct modes ofoperating the system.  Although the examples show only single system setups, you canconfigure multiple wireless systems in a setup.  Some multiple mix setups are detailed in theLOOP Applications section of this chapter.Operating ModesFor optimum performance,  The P7T requires a LINE level input signal.Stereo Control Used for conventional Stereo monitor mixes.TransmitterStereo/MixMode settingReceiverStereo settingBalance DialVaries stereo left/right imageMixMode Control Used for creating an individual mix between two distinct moni-tor sends.TransmitterStereo/MixMode settingReceiverMixMode settingBalance DialVaries levels between mixesMono Control Used when only one (mono) monitor mix is available.TransmitterMono settingReceiverStereo settingBalance DialVaries the right/left volume controlNOTE:  For the best results, the input signal must be a LINE level signal.  Forconsistency throughout the following diagrams, a mixing console is shown as the sourcesupplying the audio signal to the P7T transmitter.  However, any balanced or unbalancedsend that outputs a LINE level should drive the P7T.  Some devices that would work are CDplayers, DAT machines, direct injection boxes, and microphone preamplifiers.Stereo ControlThis diagram shows how to connect the PSM700 system with a stereo monitor mix.C840P7TP7RMIXERGROUPCHANNEL120C84C840GROUP 1GROUP 21.

Using one P7R receiver, set that P7R to same frequency as each successiveP7T to make sure the you hear the transmission.  If necssary, twist the balance dial to check forproper left/right stereo balance or MixMode operation.
10English  –LOOP ApplicationsThe LOOP OUT L (left) and R (right) outputs allow the signal going through the P7T to berun to other devices.  The LOOP feature of the P7T can be used for any number ofapplications.  Shown here are only a few examples of how it can be used.NOTE: The LOOP connectors act as either inputs or outputs.  They can beused as outputs when the LEFT and RIGHT INPUT connectors are used forinput.  However, LOOP connectors can also act as inputs when connecteddirectly to the outputs of a mixer.  When the LOOP connectors are used asinputs, the LEFT and RIGHT INPUT connectors act as outputs.  Thesediagrams show the LOOP connectors being used as outputs.  Also, theinput pad does not affect the level of the LOOP signals.Running Multiple PSM Wireless Systems Under Stereo ControlThe LOOP OUT connectors can be used to send the same monitor stereo signals tomultiple P7T wireless transmitters.  This will free up busses on the mixing console, allowingyou more freedom with your audio system.  Simply connect a P7T to the mixing console asdescribed in Stereo Control, then run 1/4-in to 1/4-in from the L/R LOOP connectors of the firstunit to the LEFT/RIGHT Input connectors of the next unit.  Connect subsequent unit in thesame way.P7R #1P7T #1MIXERP7T #2P7T #3P7R #2P7R #3Running Floor Monitors Through a P7T TransmitterThe monitor audio signal can be sent through the LOOP connectors to another amplifier,such as an amplifier for an onstage monitor system.  When setup this way, the P7R and theonstage monitors will have the same audio.P7TP7RMIXERFLOOR MONITOR AMPLIFIER
11English  –Running Multiple PSM Wireless Systems Under MixMode ControlA main mono monitor mix can be sent to multiple P7T transmitters, then independentmonitor mixes can be sent to the second channel of each.  This will allow an entire band tohear the same monitor mix, while giving each individual player a separate mix of their own.Each player can then use the balance control to adjust the levels between their own mix andthe main mono monitor mix.P7R #1P7T #1MIXERP7T #2P7T #3P7R #2P7R #3BAND MIXBAND MIXBAND MIXSOLO MIX 1SOLO MIX 2SOLO MIX 3SOLO MIX 1SOLO MIX 2SOLO MIX 3BAND MIX/SOLO MIX 1 BAND MIX/SOLO MIX 2 BAND MIX/SOLO MIX 3Running a Recording Device Through a P7T TransmitterIf you would like to make a recording of a performance, the LOOP outputs can beconnected to the inputs of a tape deck, DAT, or other recording device.AUX 2OUTAUX 1OUTP7TP7RMIXER CASSETTE RECORDER
