Installation
The C42 can be placed upright on a table or shelf, standing
on its four feet. It also can be custom installed in a piece of
furniture or cabinet of your choice. The required panel cut-
out, ventilation cutout and unit dimensions are shown.
Always provide adequate ventilation for your C42. Cool
operation ensures the longest possible operating life for
any electronic instrument. Do not install the C42 directly
above a heat generating component such as a high powered
amplifier. If all the components are installed in a single
cabinet, a quiet running ventilation fan can be a definite
asset in maintaining all the system components at the
coolest possible operating temperature.
A custom cabinet installation should provide the follow-
ing minimum spacing dimensions for cool operation. Allow
at least 2 inches (5.1cm) above the unit and 1 inch
(2.54cm) on each side of the control center, so that airflow
is not obstructed. Allow 21 inches (53.3cm) depth behind
the mounting panel, which includes clearance for connec-
tors. Allow 1-1/8 inches (2.9cm) in front of the mounting
panel for knob clearance. Be sure to cut out a ventilation
hole in the mounting shelf according to the dimensions in
the drawing.
