6UNPACKING YOUR D 200 AND PLACEMENT GUIDELINES
Unpacking Your D 200
Carefully unpack your D 200 from its shipping carton and locate all the enclosed accessories:
•Remote control, two AAA batteries
•AC power cord
•Combination cord for two channel audio and composite video
While you are unpacking your D 200, inspect it thoroughly for possible shipping damage and tell your Parasound dealer right away if you find any. If possible, save and store both the inner and outer cartons
Placement Guidelines
The D 200 will be easy to use and will last longer if you follow these simple guidelines:
•Place the D 200 on a shelf that will adequately support its weight.
•Unless you’ll control the D 200 through a remote infrared sensor/repeater system, pick a shelf where you can aim the remote control handset directly at the D 200. (If you do use remote repeater sensors, be sure the remote’s signals can’t reach both the IR repeater’s sensor and the unit’s
If you’re installing the D 200 yourself, use cables that are long enough to leave at least two feet of slack; that will enable you to pull the D 200 out of the cabinet to check or change connections without inadvertently disconnecting cables. If you’re putting the D 200 in a cabinet, make sure there’s grab space on each side; with a space that’s at least 22 inches wide, you’ll be able to turn it around for access to its rear panel connections.
Rack Mounting Your Parasound D 200
With its four feet removed, the D 200’s front panel height occupies three rack spaces (51⁄4” or 133
Slide one washer onto each mounting bolt with its raised shoulder pointing toward the panel hole.
Carefully insert the bolt through the hole and slide the other washer on the bolt with its raised shoulder facing the rear side of the panel. The washers will sandwich the D 200 panel and the four mounting bolts to prevent
Note: Tighten each bolt just enough to keep the unit secure in the rack to avoid deforming the shoulder washers.
