Unpacking
Unpack the VHD PRE-EQ and check to see if there is any damage to it. If you find any damage notify your supplier
immediately. Only the consignee may institute a claim with the carrier for any damage incurred during shipping. Be sure
to save the carton and all packaging materials for the carrier's inspection.
Should you ever need to ship the unit, only use the original factory packaging. If the shipping carton is unavailable, contact
your supplier to obtain a replacement.
The VHD PRE-EQ carton should contain:
• VHD PRE-EQ unit
• User's Guide
• IEC Power Cable
Rack mounting
The VHD PRE-EQ will mount in a standard 19" rack system. Use four screws and washers to mount the VHD PRE-EQ to the rack
rails. We recommend using a shock-mounted rack for touring use to prolong the life of your VHD PRE-EQ.
To prevent accidental adjustment of settings, or unwanted tampering in a fixed installation, KV2 Audio provide an additional
security panel.
AC Power requirements
The VHD PRE-EQ uses a standard IEC 3-pole AC connector. The device must be connected to a mains socket outlet with
protective earthing connection. The VHD PRE-EQ operates in either 115V or 230V mode. This setup is preconfigured at the
factory. The mains plug of the power supply cord shall remain readily operable.
Voltage requirements
The VHD PRE-EQ operates safely and without audio discontinuity if the AC voltage stays within the operating window of
90V-130V in 115V mode or 180V-260V when working in 230V mode at 50 or 60Hz.
