Unpacking
Unpack your amplifier and inspect for any damage that may have occurred during transit. If damage is found, notify the shipping company immediately. Only you can
initiate a claim for shipping damage, though Crown will be happy to help as needed. If the product arrived showing signs of damage, save the shipping carton for the
shipper’s inspection.
We also recommend that you save all packing materials for use if you ever need to transport the unit. Never ship the unit without the factory carton and packing materials.
Additional Materials
FOR INSTALLATION, YOU WILL NEED (not supplied):
• Input wiring cables
• Output wiring cables
• Flathead screwdriver
• Phillips screwdriver
• Rack for mounting amplifier (or a stable surface for stacking)
• Category 6 cabling
WARNING: Before you start to set up your amplifier, read and observe the Important
Safety Instructions found at the beginning of this manual.
Install the Amplifier
CAUTION: Before you begin, make sure your amplifier is disconnected from the
power source and that all the level controls
are set to minimum output.
All DCi Network Display Series amplifiers are 3.5 in. (8.9 cm).high and 19 in. (48.3 cm)
wide and 17 in. (43.2cm) deep. (See Figure 1)
Mount the unit in a standard 19-inch (48.3 cm) equipment rack (EIA RS-310B). You can
also place a single amp on a solid, stable surface or stack multiple amps.
NOTE: Amplifiers should be supported at both the front and rear of the rack.
Ensure Proper Cooling
When using an equipment rack, mount units directly on top of each other. Close any open spaces in
the rack with blank panels. (Open spaces will reduce cooling efficiency.) DO NOT block front or rear
air vents.
The rack should be a minimum of two inches (5.1 cm) away from the amplifier, and the back of the
rack should be a minimum of four inches (10.2 cm) from the amplifier back panel.
Air flow is front to back as illustrated in Figure 2.
