 Installation and Connection

Installing and Connecting the CAP converter

Unpacking and Preparing

The packaging of the CAP converter can 

be opened at the front. The converter is 

packed in an antistatic fl eece; remove this 

fl eece.

Keep the original packaging: If it is neces-

sary to send the unit for repair, use the 

original packaging to prevent transport 

damage. The manufacturer accepts no 

liability for possible damage.

Selecting the Installation Site

When choosing the place of installation, bear in mind that the rear of the CAP converter should always be 

accessible. The CAP converter is equipped with a power saving circuit, which means that the unit does not 

need to be placed where it is visible. This allows you to install the CAP converter out of sight in any position, 

e.g. on cabinet walls, side panels or storage shelves.
The four screw holes make it possible to place the CAP converter on a fi rm horizontal surface but also to 

screw it on in any desired position.

When choosing the installation place, observe the following:

The wall thickness of the installation surface must be at least 15 mm, as otherwise the screws will break through on 

the other side or damage the surface.

The cabinet or storage compartment in which the unit is to be installed must be suffi  ciently ventilated to prevent 

heat accumulation. Carpet-covered walls are unsuitable for installation

When screwing in the screws, do not damage any cables or similar that are laid behind or in the installation wall.

The CAP converter is exclusively intended for installation in dry indoor areas.

The cable lengths must be taken into account when choosing the installation place.

Strain-relieve the connecting cables.

Connections and fuses

All connecting cables are connected to the rear of the CAP converter. Viewed from the front, there is a fuse inserted 

from the outside on the left side of the CAP converter. This fuse must also be accessible after installation of the CAP 

converter so that it can be easily replaced if necessary. For more information about the type of fuse, see the sticker on 

the CAP converter and the fuse itself.

For more information on the installation, see 

Installing and Connecting the Turntable, p. 40.
