Installation Installation
House the FHX-1 in a Eurorack case of your choosing. The power connector is Doepfer standard . If using
the power cable supplied with the FHX-1, the connector is keyed and will only insert into the FHX-1 the
correct way round, in which case the red edge of the cable is nearest the edge of the PCB, and carries -12V.
("-12V" is marked on the PCB itself next to this end of the connector.) Be sure to connect the other end of
the power cable correctly, again so -12V corresponds to the red stripe on the cable.
The FHX-1 also needs to be connected to an FH-1 or FH-2 module via its "Expansion IN" connector. A 10-
way cable is supplied with the FHX-1. With this cable tted as shown above, the red stripe should be
oriented at the other end in the same way i.e. with the red stripe down.
Note: while the 10-way connector on the FHX-1 may look like the power connector on some Doepfer
modules, it is not wired the same. If you connect this to a Doepfer power bus, you will almost certainly fuse
the power supply and fry the FHX-1. This connector is only to be used for connecting the FHX-1 to an FH-1
or FH-2.
When multiple FHX-1s are to be driven from a single FH-1 or FH-2, they are daisy-chained. The rst
connection is from the FH-1 or FH-2 to the rst FHX-1's Expansion IN connector. The second connection is
from the rst FHX-1's Expansion OUT connector to the second FHX-1's Expansion IN connector. Further
