2.1Setting Up the MC Mix

Unpack your MC Mix, power adapter, AC power cord, installation CD, Ethernet crossover cable, and riser brackets from its box.

2.1.1Elevating the MC Mix

The MC Mix can be elevated or angled using small foldout legs on the bottom of the unit or elevated and angled by attaching the larger riser brackets. Since either method requires turning the MC Mix over, it is easier to do this before attaching any cables. Turn it over and place it on a soft surface.

Pull out all four of the small foldout legs to moderately elevate the unit; pull out only the back two to angle the unit towards you (Figure 2-1left).
