2 Setup

2.1 Installation

CAUTION: Before you begin, make sure your mixer-amplifier is disconnected from the power source, with the power switch in the “off” position and all level controls turned completely down (counterclockwise).

Use a standard 19-inch (48.3 cm) equipment rack (EIA RS-310B). See Figure 2.1 for amplifier dimen- sions.

You may also stack mixer-amps without using a cabinet, or you may place a single mixer-amp on a surface with 12 inches of air space around the unit for convection cooling.

NOTE: When transporting in a rack, mixer-amps should be supported at the front and back.

When using an equipment rack, do not mount units directly on top of each other. Allow 2 rack units (3.5 inches) between units for convection cooling. The

side walls of the rack should be a minimum of two inches (5.1 cm) away from the mixer-amplifier sides, and the back of the rack should be a mini- mum of four inches (10.2 cm) from the mixer- amplifier back panel.
