Compatibility
The mpressor 500 is a module to be installed into an API 500
series compatible rack frame (not included). It needs the pow-
er supply and the audio connectors provided by this frame
and does not function stand alone.
The current consumption is 75 milliamperes at +/- 16 volts DC.
The mpressor 500 meets all mechanical and electronic specifi-
cations of the VPR Alliance, providing the highest level of com-
patibility with common 500 series rack frames.
Installation
Just follow these easy steps to install your mpressor 500:
1. Switch your API 500 series compatible rack off and discon-
nect the power cable from mains.
2. Insert the module into a free slot of your rack. Make sure the
PCB connector matches with the rack connector.
3. Gently push the module in place - do not use any extensive
force here!
4. Tighten the front panel with two screws provided by your
rack manufacturer.
5. Connect your audio cables (see page 6 for more info) and
apply power to your rack.
And this is already it. Have lots of fun with your mpressor 500!
