3. INSTALLATION
Your SM Pro Audio A08 was carefully packed in the factory and the packaging was designed
to protect the unit from rough handling. Nevertheless, we recommend that you carefully examine
the packaging and its contents for any signs of physical damage, which may have occurred in
transit.
+ If the unit is damaged, please do not return it to us, but notify your dealer and the shipping
company immediately, otherwise claims for damage or replacement may not be granted.
Shipping claims must be made by the consignee.
3.1 Desktop usage
The SM Pro Audio A08 ships with four rubber feet screwed on to the base of the unit. Simply
placing the unit on a desktop will allow safe and secure operation by providing enough ventilation
to the unit whilst maintaining a low non slip profile position.
3.2 Rack mounting option
The SM Pro Audio A08 can be rack mounted with optional rack-mount ears. Rack units are very
convenient for providing protection during transportation and use under demanding conditions.
They are also useful in organizing your equipment in an easy to access and orderly manner in
your studio. You will notice four small holes on both sides of the A08. These are provided for
easy installation of the optional rack-mount ears. Please ask your dealer for more information on
how to purchase the optional ears.
3.3 Power supply
The SM Pro Audio A08 has a 17V AC external power supply included. Before you connect your
SM Pro Audio A08 to the power supply, please make sure that your local mains voltage matches
the voltage required by the external plug pack power supply!
Simply connect the power adapter plug pack to both your local mains power at one end and to
the SM Pro Audio A08 AC input on the rear of the unit. The on/off switch for the A08 is located on
the front panel of the unit.
