You can connect the AC adaptor or another appropriate power source to the [DC IN]
connector on the left side panel of the PD606. If you use the AC adaptor, insert the
XLR-4-32 type connector of the AC adaptor to the [DC IN] connector until it is locked,
then connect the AC plug to the AC main outlet (see the figure below).
<Notes>
• When you connect or disconnect the connector, make sure that the power is off.
• Use only the Fostex dedicated AC adaptor. Using another AC adaptor may damage
the PD606 due to the mismatch of the power voltage, polarity, etc. When connect or
disconnect the AC adaptor, make sure that the [POWER] switch is set to "OFF".
The AC adaptor for the PD606 is optionally available (ask your local Fostex dealer or
sale office for purchasing the option).

Important settings for using [DC IN]
Low battery warning setting
When you get the power from the [DC IN] connector (such as use the AC adaptor), you
can set the threshold voltage for warning low battery.
When the DC-IN voltage gets lower than the threshold voltage you set, the warning
tone is output from the headphones connected to the unit.
By default, the threshold voltage is set to 13.0V. However, you can set the desired
threshold voltage via the "DC-IN warning" item in the "BATTERY SETUP" menu of the
MENU mode (see page 173).
Power supply priority setting (essential when using both [DC IN] and battery)
When you use both a battery and the [DC IN] connector, you must set the power
supply priority ("DC-IN" or "BATT"). For example, if you set it to "DC-IN", a warning
message pops up on the display and the battery automatically takes over only when
the power supply from the "DC-IN" jack is cut off (power failure, disconnection, etc).
Note that, if you use only batteries, you do not need to make this setting.
You can make setting via the "Power priority" item in the "BATTERY SETUP" menu of
the MENU mode (see page 174).
