Furman ASD-120 2.0 Owner'S Manual Download Page 2

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for choosing a Furman product and congratulations on your choice 
of the ASD-120 2.0.  The ASD-120 2.0 is a six channel power sequencing 
device intended for use in installations where multiple electrical loads must be 
powered on and off in a delayed and orderly sequence.  Typical applications for 
the ASD-120 2.0 include: touring PA or sound reinforcement systems, musical or 
theatrical acts, mobile recording facilities, and on-location film or video shoots.  
Essentially, any situation where AC power must be distributed to multiple circuits 
and activated or deactivated in discrete stages would benefit from the use of an 
ASD-120 2.0.

Please read this manual completely and carefully and review the installation man-
ual before installing or applying power to your ASD-120 2.0.  Those familiar with 
the ASD-120 will recognize that the ASD-120 2.0 provides the same functionality 
as the preceding version but adds a number of features that the user might 
appreciate.  These new features include the following:

• All settings, options, and controls are now easily accessible from the front panel
• The output capacity of the 12V remote interface has been increased to 250mA 
• Maximum sequencing delay has been increased to 7 minutes per stage
• The operation of the Remote interface has been harmonized with other Furman  
   products
• The Force Off warning is now highly visible 
• The sequencing bypass switches are now low profile to prevent inadvertent    
   operation
• A security cover has been added to prevent unauthorized access.
• Rear rack mounting ears have been added to enhance road worthiness
• Phoenix-type connectors have been used to simplify installation

Please note:

Because the ASD-120 2.0 switches hazardous voltages and high currents, we 
recommend that installation be performed by a qualified electrician.  For safe 
operation, the ASD-120 2.0 must be installed in accordance with local/municipal 
and National Electrical Codes. Please feel free to contact Furman Technical Ser-
vices if you have any questions or concerns regarding the installation, operation, 
or service of your ASD-120 2.0. 

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE:

While the subject of attaching a power cable to the ASD-120 2.0 is covered in 
the Wiring Instructions, the connection to utility power or generator power is 
not.  We strongly recommended that the ASD-120 2.0 be installed by a qualified 
electrician.  Please refer to the “Wiring Instructions” section in this manual.
