Detach the jar, lid, and blade assembly. Wash them in warm soapy water or dishwasher. Wipe the motor base with a damp cloth.

What should I do if the blender won't start?

Ensure the jar is properly locked onto the base and the lid is secured. Check the power connection.

Can I crush ice with this blender?

Yes, use the Pulse function for ice crushing. Add a small amount of water for best results.

What is the maximum capacity for dry ingredients?

Do not fill the jar more than half full with dry ingredients to avoid overloading.

How do I replace the blade?

Unscrew the blade assembly from the jar base by turning counterclockwise. Install the new blade and tighten clockwise.

INSTALLATION

Figure 1 shows volume control locations, microphone and auxiliary input connections. Figure 2 shows output terminal strips and switches on the back of the mixer. Figure 3 shows a typical connecting arrangement. The V-9985 contains a Main Mixer Module and 1 Remote Module. Three additional remote modules may be connected to the main mixer module. Figure 4 shows other feature connections. Figure 5 shows Remote Input Module, Speaker and Power Connections.

All connections should be made to the mixer and double-checked prior to connecting DC power.

Connect the microphone to balanced XLR cables and the microphone XLR connector on the Remote Input Module. If the microphone is a condenser type it will require Phantom Power. Turn "ON" the Phantom Power Switch located on the Remote Module using a small scribe or paper clip. The Phantom Power LED will illuminate. The microphone volume control is located on the remote module. Other sources such as CD and MP3 players, tuners, and computer sound cards may be connected to the auxiliary inputs located on the remote and main modules. Volume controls for the auxiliary inputs are located on the remote input and main control module.

An additional audio input is available with a volume control located on the PC board for connection to a low level audio source such as a telephone page port or Valcom One-Way Page Control. An option dip switch located on the PC board enables the input to override the microphone and auxiliary inputs.

A compressor is available to even out a user's voice to compensate for poor microphone or vocal technique and allow more microphone gain before feedback. All auxiliary and microphone inputs are routed through the compressor when enabled. An option dip switch located on the PC board enables the compressor.

A connection is provided to add a remote volume control. This is a 2 wire connection using a 10K Ohm linear potentiometer.

Speaker Connections

Connect Tip and Ring of Valcom Amplified Speakers to the output screw terminals located on the Main Mixer Module. Connect Tip and Ring of Valcom Amplified Paging Horns to horn audio output screw terminals.

When setting the system up, it is recommended that the master gain control be set 2/3 and aux volume controls be set to 1/4.

OPERATION

The V-9985, Four Channel Pre-Amp/Mixer actively mixes any signals present on the inputs. Each input is equipped with its own volume control to allow blending of the input sources. The unit also has a master volume control to allow a volume level adjustment of all mixed signals. Bass and treble controls allow up to 12dB of boost or cut at 50Hz and 10kHz.

An audio input is available on the main control module allowing connection of a low level signal that will override all other inputs. An option dip switch controls the override feature.

The integrated compressor feature is controlled by an option dip switch. Microphone and auxiliary inputs are routed through the compressor when the compressor is active.

Two outputs are provided by the V-9985 modular mixer.

• An output to drive full range speakers
• An output to drive limited range paging horns
