1.1 

Utilization for the Purpose Intended

 

  The Studer Compact Stagebox is intended for professional use. 

 

  It is presumed that the unit is operated only by trained personnel. Servicing 

is reserved to skilled technicians. 

 

  The electrical connections may be connected only to the voltages and signals 

designated in this manual. 

1.2 

First Steps

1.2.1 

Unpacking and Inspection

 

  Your new unit is shipped in a special packing which protects it against 

mechanical shock during transit. Care should be exercised when unpacking 

so that the surfaces do not get marred.

 

  Check the condition of the equipment for signs of shipping damage. If there 

should be any complaints you should immediately notify the forwarding agent 

and your nearest Studer distributor.

 

  Please retain the original packing material because it offers the best protection 

in case your equipment ever needs to be transported. 

1.2.2 

Installation

Primary Voltage 

 

The power supply unit is auto-ranging; it can be used for voltages in a range 

of 100 to 240 VAC ±10%, 50 to 60 Hz.

AC Supply Connection 

  The attached female IEC 320/C13 cable socket has to be connected to an 

appropriate cable by a trained technician, respecting your local regulations. 

Refer to the ‘Installation, Operation, and Waste Disposal’ chapter at the begin-

ning of this manual.

Earthing

 

 

This equipment must be earthed, due to the power input filter network be ing 

connected to earth. 

 

  Some consideration must be given to the earthing arrangement of the sy stem, 

at the center of which is the frame. The frame is earthed via the power supply. 

Ground loops may occur where signal processing equip ment, patched to the 

frame, has its signal earth commoned to the equip ment chassis.

Temperature Regulations

 

  The unit must not be used in conditions of excessive heat or cold, near any 

source of moisture, in excessively humid environments, or in positions where 

it is likely to be subjected to vibration or dust. The ambient temperature range 

for normal operation of the unit is –5 to +45 °C. 

1.2.3 

Adjustments, Repair, Cleaning

Danger 

 

All internal adjustments as well as repair work on this product must be per-

formed by expert technicians! 

Replacing the Supply Unit 

 

The primary fuses are located within the power supply modules and cannot be 

changed. In case of failure, the complete power supply unit must be replaced. 

Please ask your nearest Studer representative. 

Cleaning 

  Do not use any liquids to clean the exterior of the unit. A soft, dry cloth or 

brush will usually do.
