3.7 diamond - Grounding
Each diamond frame must be grounded for EMC reasons and to ensure the correct operation of the physical controls.
If the frame is not properly grounded, then you may see some odd behaviours once the console is operational. For example,
the faders do not move as expected.
Grounding Instructions
To ground the frame, please read and observe all of the instructions in the "General Safety Information for Lawo Equipment"
booklet delivered with your devices.
For each diamond frame, a grounding screw is provided on the connector board (on the underside of the frame).
Use the M4x10 screw to fasten the grounding cable to the housing. You should use a Torx T20 driver for this purpose.
If the frame includes more than one connector panel, then it is important to ground each section of the frame.
(E) CAUTION
Each frame must be on the same potential as all other system devices.
ALWAYS use a grounded mains connection, to prevent the device from being grounded through Ethernet or other signal
connections.
The device must be connected to an additional fixed protective ground if it is conductively connected with more than
20 other devices. i.e. more than 20 copper I/O connections. For more information, please refer to the "General Safety
Information for Lawo Equipment" booklet delivered with your devices.
