Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void
the user’s authority to operate the equipment under FCC rules.

The lightning flash with arrowhead
symbol within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user of the presence
of uninsulated “dangerous voltage”
within the product’s enclosure that may
be of sufficient magnitude to constitute
a risk of electric shock to persons. The
exclamation point within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the user of
the presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the product (i.e.
this Quick Start Guide).
G
CAUTION: To prevent electric shock,
do not use the polarized plug supplied
with the device with any extension cord,
receptacle, or other outlet unless the
prongs can be fully inserted.
G
Power Source: This Symetrix hardware
uses a universal input supply that
automatically adjusts to the applied
voltage. Ensure that your AC mains
voltage is somewhere between 100-240
VAC, 50-60 Hz. Use only the power
cord and connector specified for the
product and your operating locale. A
protective ground connection, by way of
the grounding conductor in the power
cord, is essential for safe operation. The
appliance inlet and coupler shall remain
readily operable once the apparatus has
been installed.
G
Lithium Battery Caution: Observe the
correct polarity when changing the lithium
battery. There is a danger of explosion if
battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace
only with the same or equivalent type.
Dispose of used batteries according to
local disposal requirements.
G
User Serviceable Parts: There are no
user serviceable parts inside this Symetrix
product. In case of failure, customers
inside the U.S. should refer all servicing to
the Symetrix factory. Customers outside
the U.S. should refer all servicing to an
authorized Symetrix distributor. Distributor
contact information is available online at:
http://www.symetrix.co.
Do not block any ventilation openings.
Install only in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
(
This apparatus shall be connected to
a mains socket outlet with a protective
earthing connection. Do not defeat
the safety purpose of the polarized or
grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has
two blades with one wider than the other.
A grounding type plug has two blades
and a third grounding prong. The wide
blade or the third prong are provided for
your safety. If the provided plug does not
fit into your outlet, consult an electrician
for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
BL
Protect the power cord from being
walked on or pinched particularly at
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the
point where they exit from the apparatus.
BM
Only use attachments/accessories
specified by the manufacturer.
BN
Use only with the cart, stand,
tripod, bracket, or table
specified by the manufacturer,
or sold with the apparatus.
When a cart is used, use
caution when moving the cart/apparatus
combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

Special note: for multiple ARCs on single chain, the listed
value is assumed to be the cable length between each
device. For example, a value of 600’ means 600’ between
the DSP unit and the first ARC, 600’ between the first and
second ARCs, etc. The total cable length will be the listed
segment length multiplied by the number of ARCs on the
chain.
