Chapter 2: Getting Started
This chapter shows you how to prepare the Venice
F
for operation, which includes:
• Installation
• Connecting up
• Setting up
• Powering up
Before installing, setting up or operating this equipment make sure you have
read and fully understand all of the “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS” at
the front of this document and observe the following precautions.
Installation
The position of the console will vary from venue to venue. When installing the console,
take the following into consideration.
• Before installing and operating this Class 1 equipment, make sure it is correctly
connected to the protective earth conductor of the mains voltage supply socket
outlet through the mains lead.
• When positioning the console for FOH use it is worth placing the console in a position
where the sound system used can be heard properly from the mix position. Try to
avoid placing the console behind pillars or large objects, or mixing from a level
above the speaker position (for example, from a balcony).
• The console should be located in a convenient space commensurate with the use to
which the console is being put.
• Ideally a cool area is preferred, away from power distribution equipment or other
potential sources of interference.
• Do not install the equipment in places of poor ventilation.
• Do not install this equipment in a location subjected to excessive heat, dust or
mechanical vibration. Allow for adequate ventilation around the equipment, making
sure that its fans and vents are not obstructed. Whenever possible, keep the
equipment out of direct sunlight.
• Do not place the equipment in an unstable condition where it might accidentally fall
over.
• Provision should be made for some flat surface surrounding the console to prevent
people using it as a table top.
Handling the equipment
When lifting or moving the equipment, always take its size and weight into
consideration. If necessary, use suitable lifting equipment or transporting gear, or
sufficient additional personnel.
Completely isolate the equipment electrically and disconnect all cables from the
equipment before moving it.
Do not insert your fingers or hands in any gaps or openings on the equipment, for
example, vents.
