6.1 Pre-Installation Procedures
Before you physically install the KayakDD-1 system, familiarize yourself with the tools
required, physical specifications, and safety and power requirements covered in this
section.
6.1.1 System Survey
Check all parts received against the packing list enclosed with your shipment, and
examine the equipment for any shipping damage. Immediately report any missing or
damaged items to the carrier and to your Thomson Grass Valley Service
Representative.
6.1.2 Line Voltage
KayakDD-1 components utilize auto-ranging power supplies which accommodate 100 -
240V. No switch settings are required, nor are any possible.
6.1.3 Safety Requirements
To prevent injury or equipment damage, read, understand, and follow all installation
safety precautions.
WARNING!
The Video Processor frame weighs approximately 6.5 kg (14.3 lb). Provide appropriate
equipment to support the frame during installation.
WARNING!
Electrical potential is still applied to some internal components even when power to the
frame is off. To prevent electrical shock when working on this equipment, disconnect
the AC line cords from the AC source before working on any internal components.
Residual voltage may be present immediately after unplugging the system; wait thirty
seconds to allow capacitors to discharge before working on the system.
CAUTION!
To avoid static damage to sensitive electronic devices, protect the KayakDD system
from static discharge. Avoid handling frame modules in a high static environment. Use
a grounding strap when handling modules, and touch the frame before you remove
any modules.
