Audio I/O 1U Manual
Installation
This module is designed for use within an
Intellijel-standard 1U row, such as
contained within the Intellijel 4U and 7U
Eurorack cases. Intellijel’s 1U specification
is derived from the Eurorack mechanical
specification set by Doepfer that is
designed to support the use of lipped rails
within industry standard rack heights.
Before Your Start
Intellijel Eurorack modules are designed to be used with a Eurorack-compatible case and power
supply. We recommend you use Intellijel cases and power supplies.
Before installing a new module in your case, you must ensure your power supply has a free
power header and sufficient available capacity to power the module:
●
Sum up the specified +12V current draw for all modules, including the new one. Do the
same for the -12 V and +5V current draw. The current draw will be specified in the
manufacturer's technical specifications for each module.
●
Compare each of the sums to specifications for your case’s power supply.
●
Only proceed with installation if none of the values exceeds the power supply’s
specifications. Otherwise you must remove modules to free up capacity or upgrade your
power supply.
You will also need to ensure your case has enough free space (hp) to fit the new module. To
prevent screws or other debris from falling into the case and shorting any electrical contacts, not
leave gaps between adjacent modules, and cover all unused areas with blank panels. Similarly,
do not use open frames or any other enclosure that exposes the backside of any module or the
power distribution board.
