About the 960L

The 960L system consists of two components: a rack- mounted Mainframe designed for remote mounting in machine rooms or elsewhere, and a dedicated controller, the LARC2.

Unpacking the 960L

The 960L system is shipped in two cartons, one containing the 960L mainframe, the other containing the LARC 2 dedicated controller. After unpacking, save all packing materials in case you ever need to ship the unit. Thoroughly inspect the 960L system and packing materials for signs of damage. Report any shipment damage to the carrier at once. The following accessories are packed with the 960L Mainframe (for the LARC2 carton, see Chapter 2):

•Lexicon 960L Mainframe, with cards installed

•IEC power cord

•CD-ROM, 960L Software

•This User Guide

•Warranty and Registration Cards

•CE compliance certificate

•License Agreement

•Bumper feet (4)

The 960L mainframe’s rear panel holds four I/O cards, together with power connections, the mains power switch, mains voltage selector switch and option plates. The I/O cards can be removed for service and/or upgrades without removing the chassis from the rack.

The proper ordering (top to bottom) of the cards is I/O Clock Card, I/O Option Plate, AES I/O Card, Analog In Card and Analog Out Card. Cards should be kept in this order.
