INSTALLING THE UNIT Place the unit on a flat, level surface. Be sure the player is in a well-ventilated area where it will not be exposed to direct sunlight, high temperatures, or high humidity Try to place the unit as far as possible from TVs and tuners, as the unit may cause undesirable interference.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
UPDATING FIRMWARE
Checking Firmware Version Turn the unit off. Hold down the MODE button (under SAMPLE SEQUENCER) while powering up the unit. Updating The Firmware Firmware updates may, as necessary, become available from Stanton's website (www. stantondj. com) as downloadable ISO files, which are needed to create a bootable CD. We recommend using Magic ISO Maker (www. magiciso. com) PC software to burn the disc. Once you have burned a bootable disc from the ISO file, insert the CD into the C. 324. Turn the unit off and back on to complete the update process.

DO NOT POWER OFF UNIT WHILE DISC IS INSERTED Removing the disc from the drive before powering off will insure that the laser pickup remains properly calibrated over time. Leaving a disc in the device while powering off could also cause the jog wheel sensitivity to shift, as the same "memory" is shared between laser pickup and jog wheel calibration data. See "Jog Wheel Sensitivity "on page 11 for information.
BURNING
When burning CD-Rs or CD-RWs for the C. 324, it is strongly recommended to set your burner at 8x write speed.
