INSTALLATION
This module is designed for use within an
Intellijel-standard 1U row, such as contained
within the Intellijel Palette, or 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 You Start
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 spe12V 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, do 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.
to assist in your planning. Failure to adequately power your
modules may result in damage to your modules or power supply. If you are unsure, please
before proceeding.
