Installation Notes

1.

 

The front of the amplifier is completed by the insertion of a combination of Input Modules and Infill Panels (BPl,
BP3).

2.

 

When a pre-amplifier is fitted, a Mixer Stage is normally used.

3.

 

Always ensure amplifier is turned off when inserting modules.

4.

 

Always earth equipment.

5.

 

Ensure correct fuses are inserted.

6.

 

Provide adequate air-flow around amplifier.

7.

 

When fitting DIN plugs, ensure screen connection does not touch the casing of the plug, thus avoiding earth loops.

AVOIDING GROUND LOOPS: As supplied all Adept main frames have the common
negative battery supply input bonded to the chassis, mains earth.  For some applications it
may be necessary to remove this bond to avoid for example ground loops by disconnecting
the green yellow wire between pin 4 of input socket 8 and the chassis.
Ground loops on a system will cause a line frequency hum to be produced from the
loudspeakers and is best avoided using isolated input modules (for example IMPX selected
to line input, etc) especially if inputs are required to be wired in parallel.
