Rotating the sockets
The sockets on the rear panel of the Virus TI desktop model can
be rotated 90° so that the unit can be mounted in a 19” rack
without requiring free space above the “back” panel. Many
owners will consider themselves skilled enough to attempt the
following themselves – although this should ideally be done by a
professional technician. We recommend to contact your Access
dealer for further assistance.
Important notice: Kemper Digital GmbH takes no responsibility
whatsoever for any damage incurred while attempting to carry
out these instructions! Rotating the sockets does not void the
warranty of a Virus TI Desktop.
„
What you will need: A flat and soft working surface (e.g. your
couch), a bowl or similar for the screws, a suitable crosspoint
screwdriver and hexagonal key.
„
Remove any attached cables and turn the unit upside down.
Remove the end-cheeks using the hexagonal key.
„
Using a small cross-point screwdriver, remove the 6 screws in
the baseplate. Carefully remove the baseplate and set it aside
for the moment. Remove the 6 screws between the rear-panel
sockets.
„
Pull up the “sockets unit” a little and perch it on the ledge of the
back panel. Using both hands,
carefully pull the 40-way con-
nector from its socket on the motherboard. The sockets unit is
now free.
„
Using the latest set of screws (i.e. the ones without pointed
ends), attach the sockets unit firmly into the baseplate, which
has all the necessary holes.
„
Position the baseplate (with the sockets now firmly in place) so
that the 40-way cable can reach the socket on the mother-
board. Carefully but firmly plug it all the way in.
„
“Close the lid” and use the remaining 6 small screws to reattach
the baseplate. Turn the unit “right side up” and attach the power
cable to ensure that the 40-way plug has been properly fitted.
Setting Up
The following steps include several important precautions. In
addition to the simple setup described here, the Virus TI can be
connected in a variety of ways to suit virtually any audio envi-
ronment.
„
Please do not plug the Virus into the mains power yet. First of
all, temporarily switch off any devices you will eventually be
connecting your Virus to, and turn all main volume controls
(mixer, amplifier) down to minimum.
„
If your Virus is a desktop version, connect the MIDI OUT from a
keyboard or sequencer to the MIDI IN socket on the Virus.
