Installing Your Module
When installing or removing a module from
your case always turn off the power to the case
and disconnect the power cable. Failure to do
so may result in serious injury or equipment
damage.
Ensure the 10-pin connector on the power
cable is connected correctly to the module
before proceeding. The red stripe on the cable
must line up with the -12V pins on the module’s
power connector. The pins are indicated with
the label -12V, a white stripe next to the
connector, the words “red stripe”, or some
combination of those indicators. Sometimes the
connectors are shrouded, ensuring the cable
can only be oriented in one direction.
Most modules will come with the cable already connected but it is good to double check the
orientation. Be aware that some modules may have headers that serve other purposes so ensure
the cable is connected to the right one.
The other end of the cable, with a 16-pin
connector, connects to the power bus board of
your Eurorack case. Ensure the red stripe on the
cable lines up with the -12V pins on the bus
board. On Intellijel power supplies the pins are
labelled with the label “-12V” and a thick white
stripe. Sometimes the connectors are shrouded,
ensuring the cable can only be oriented in one
direction.
If you are using another manufacturer’s power
supply, check their documentation for instructions.
