GENERAL PRECAUTIONS AND CONSIDERATIONS
Rack Mounting
The T•231 is designed to be mounted in a standard
rack. It requires two rack spaces (2U = 3.5”). It also
requires 7.5” depth inside the rack, not counting the
rear connectors. When designing your rack, put the
heavier items at the bottom and the lighter items
toward the top.
Secure the front panel of the T•231 to the front of
the rack using four screws with soft washers to prevent
scratching the panel.
Thermal Considerations
Avoid mounting the T•231 directly over devices
that produce heat, such as power amplifi ers. As with
all electronic components, it is best to provide cool air
circulation around the T•231 to avoid overheating. The
ambient temperature should not exceed 113˚ F (45˚ C).
AC Power Considerations
Be sure the T•231 is plugged into an AC outlet that
is able to supply the specifi ed voltage, and the AC
Select switch is set to the correct voltage.
Be sure the AC outlet can supply enough current
to allow full power operation of all the components
plugged into it, especially if there are power amplifi ers
plugged in. The outlet should be a three-prong socket
that matches the power cord.
WARNING:
Bypassing the plug’s
safety ground pin can be
dangerous.
Don’t do it!
