Introduction1.

The UCA202 is PC and Mac-compatible.

Therefore, no separate installation procedure is required,

while the operating system drivers ensure an extremely

short latency. Thanks to its robust construction and

compact dimensions, the UCA202 is also ideal for traveling.

The separate headphones output allows you to play back

your recordings at any time, even if you don’t happen to have

any loudspeakers available.

2 inputs and outputs as well as the digital stereo output

give you total connecting ﬂexibility to mixing consoles,

loudspeakers or headphones. Power is supplied to the

unit via the USB interface. The LED gives you a quick check

that the UCA202 is properly connected to the computer.

The UCA202 is the ideal extra for every computer musician.

Before you started1.1

Shipment1.1.1

Your UCA202 was carefully packed at the assembly plant

to assure secure transport. Should the condition of the

cardboard box suggest that damage may have taken place,

please inspect the unit immediately and look for physical

indications of damage.

Damaged equipment should NEVER be sent directly◊

to us. Please inform the dealer from whom you

acquired the unit immediately as well as the

transportation company from which you took

delivery. Otherwise, all claims for replacement/repair

may be rendered invalid.

Please always use the original packaging to avoid◊

damage due to storage or shipping.

Never let unsupervised children play with the◊

equipment or with its packaging.

9U-CONTROL UCA202 User Manual

environmentally friendly fashion.

Initial operation1.1.2

Please make sure the unit is provided with suﬃcient

ventilation, and never place the UCA202 on top of an

ampliﬁer or in the vicinity of a heater to avoid the risk

of overheating.

The current supply is made via the USB connecting cable,

so that there is no external power supply unit required.

All required safety precautions have been adhered to.

Online registration1.1.3

equipment right after your purchase by visiting

behringer.com (alternatively behringer.de) and kindly read

the terms and conditions of our warranty carefully.
