Installing The Module
Connecting Power
The module is supplied with a 12-inch ribbon-cable to connect it to
the power distribution bus in your cabinet. The keyed socket on the
module ensures that the cable can only be installed one way, with the
red stripe of the cable towards the bottom of the module. The 16-way
plug on the far end of the cable should be orientated with the red
stripe on the cable connecting to the -12-Volt pins on the distribution
board.
It is advisable to power the module briefly before fixing it in the
cabinet to confirm that the cable is fitted correctly. When doing this
ensure that the module is not placed on a conducting surface. The
internal protection circuits will prevent any damage to the module
should the cable be connected incorrectly.
Selecting CV Source
When fitted, the Bus CV jumper connects pins 13 and 14 of the power
connector to the CV summer. The VCO will then track the CV on the
power bus without patching, simplifying the connections to the
module. If this feature is not wanted then removing the jumper
isolates these pins and the user can patch the required CV through
the front panel jacks.
