5. Installation
Use four screws and washers when rack mounting the unit. For mobile use, the unit should be further
secured as appropriate.
5.1. General requirements
The unit has specific physical, electrical and signal requirements for proper operation. These
requirements will vary depending on your specific application, setup, and the settings on the unit.
When setting up and testing your system, please take special care to double check all connections
and settings. Please refer to the specifications section of this manual for specific input, output and
other figures.
5.2. AC Power
Your unit equalizer should be connected to standard 3-wire grounded electrical outlet supplying 100-
240V, 50-60Hz. To reduce the risk of ground loop hum, connect all audio equipment to the same
electrical power source. Removal of the ground pin is both unlawful and dangerous, as a potential
shock hazard could result.
