IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICES
To avoid risk of electric shock, injury or death, it is recommended to never
attempt to self-service a Flock Audio PATCH LT System. There are no self
repairable or removable parts in the system. If your Flock Audio PATCH LT
System requires repairs, please contact our support team to arrange for a
Flock Audio Certified Repair Technician. (www.flockaudio.com/support)
#1. Do Not Self-Service
To avoid risk of damage to your PATCH LT System, avoid having liquids &/or
spills near your PATCH LT System. If accidental spill occurs, safely shut off
your PATCH LT System using the front power toggle switch, unplug the wall
outlet and disconnect the 6-pin power supply from the system. Once
completed, please contact Flock Audio Support to arrange for a Certified
Repair Technician to remove and repair if required.
#2. Avoid Liquid &/or Spills
It is not recommended to use any other alternative power supply sources
other than your included Flock Audio TRUM Power 65W Power Supply with
your Flock Audio PATCH LT System. Use of other power supplies may cause
damage and void your warranty agreement. Use of 3rd party USB & DB-25
Cables are of no concern and should be chosen based upon the preference
and needs of the user.
#3. Use Only Recommended Power Supplies & Cables
Proper mount spacing and rack mount ventilation is required to ensure your
Flock Audio PATCH LT System does not overheat. It is recommended that
the rear of the rack is open for proper ventilation and that the user DOES
NOT mount the PATCH LT System above any tube-related audio
equipment. If necessary, there should be a 1/2 - 1U rack space between the
PATCH LT System and any warm or tube-related audio equipment to avoid
unexpected shutdowns or internal damage.
#4. Proper Rack mount Ventilation Requirements
In addition to your supplied Power Supply brick, it is recommended that
you always use a properly shielded and grounded IEC power cable (110V/
220V) with your PATCH LT System. The Chassis is designed to work with the
earth ground inside the box for both a safe & quiet audio operation. Never
remove or use a IEC cable accessory without the grounding pin.
#5. Use Properly Grounded IEC Power Cables
Although no damage or immediate danger will occur if 48V Phantom Power
is engaged on a preamp connected to the Input of the PATCH LT System, it
is not recommended to leave that 48V source active for a lengthly period of
time. The PATCH LT System is equipped with its own 48V capabilities and
once it detects an externally connected active 48V source, it will prompt the
user in the PATCH APP to disable it.
#6. External 48V Phantom Power (I.E. Connected Preamp)
Never use your Flock Audio PATCH LT System during any electrical or
lightning storms. Calmly shutdown your System, unplug the IEC power
cable from the wall outlet or power conditioner until it is safe to continue
use. It is also recommended to keep the system unplugged if not in use for
long extended periods of time.
#7. Discontinue Use During Electrical Storms
