Installation & Setup

Circuit Overloading

When connecting the equipment to the supply circuits, be aware of the effect that overloading the circuits might have on over-current protection and supply wiring.

Reliable Earthing (Grounding)

Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. If not using a direct connection to the branch circuit (e.g., plugging into a power strip), pay particular attention to supply connections.

Caution: For proper start up, turn on all power switches for the AMX AutoPatch equipment at the same time before applying power to the source and destination devices. We recommend attaching all power cords to a single surge protector and/or an AC line conditioner.

Unpacking

The Precis SD is shipped with one enclosure per shipping box. The invoice is sent separately; a packing list is attached to the outside of the box. Each box contains the following items:

Enclosure

Standard US power cord (if shipped within the US) Rack ears (with 8 screws)

Other enclosure products as needed The documentation in the box includes:

AMX AutoPatch Precis SD Quick Start Guide

AMX AutoPatch CD

The shipping boxes are marked as “Chassis __ of __,” where the first blank is the box number and the second blank is the total number of boxes in the shipment.

Unpacking Tips

Before fully unpacking the enclosure(s), inspect the shipping box(es) for any signs of damage. If a box is partially crushed or any sides have been broken open, notify the shipping agency immediately and contact your AMX representative (see the warranty on the

AMX AutoPatch CD or at www.amx.com).

Once unpacking is complete, closely check the physical condition of the enclosure.

Collect all documentation.

Note: Please save the original shipping container and packing materials. AMX is not responsible for damage caused by insufficient packing during return shipment to the factory. Shipping boxes are available; contact your AMX representative for details.
