Installation and security
Purpose
This module is meant for installation in a Eurorack-compliant chassis.
It adheres to Doepfer Eurorack mechanical and electrical specifications.
Do not attempt using this module in other mechanical or electrical contexts.
Installation
Before the installation, disconnect the mains power supply from your modular system. Some
power supplies are not safely isolated; there is a risk of injury!
See in the specifications if this module requires 5V from the supply rails. If 5V is needed and your
rack is not providing 5V, do not attempt connection!
Check that the current consumption requirements of this module, when added to your installed
set of modules do not exceed the available current from your supply. This is done by adding up
the current draw of all modules (mA) separately for each of 5V, 12V and -12V rails. If any of these 3
sums exceeds the available current of your supply for that voltage, do not connect the module to
your system; you need a stronger power supply.
The provided supply flat cable can only be inserted in the appropriate orientation at the back of
the module, so there is no risk of error on that end. However, you should pay attention to the
orientation of the cable in the socket of the supply PCB inside your chassis. Cheap sockets
without shrouding may allow you to plug in the connector the wrong way!
The red stripe on the cable should match a stripe printed on the supply board. The stripe also
indicates the -12V side. In case there is no stripe, a -12V marking is a safe indication of the
orientation.
Double check that the connectors are fully inserted and correctly oriented before switching on
the power supply. In case of an anomaly, switch off the power supply immediately and check
everything again.
