MindPrint T.R.I.O.

11. Other Features

11.1 POWER Switch

Use the POWER switch on the left of the rear panel to switch
T.R.I.O™ on and off. The INPUTS or OUTPUTS LED lights up
(depending on switching status) to indicate the device is
powered up and running.

11.2 Mains Socket

Use the external power supply (wall wart) rated for 15 V
alternating current and 1700 mA power to connect T.R.I.O™ to
the mains supply.

11.3 GND

The GROUND screw is located below the mains socket. It works
like the ground screw of a record player.

T.R.I.O ships with a generously sized power unit designed to
provide plenty of power for the microphone input and the two
headphones amps under any circumstances.

When a grounded device is connected to T.R.I.O™ (via a three-
terminal non-heating equipment mains cord), T.R.I.O™ grounds
itself to this circuit. You may hear a humming noise if all the
devices connected to T.R.I.O™ are powered by wall warts. For
precisely this reason, T.R.I.O™ offers the nifty option of grounding
the device's chassis by means of a grounding cord connected to
the GND screw.
