Installation and compatibility.
WesAudio _MIMAS compressor module is designed to be installed into:
An API™ 500 Series compatible rack
_TITAN or any other ng500 compatible chassis,
WesAudio _MIMAS cannot function standalone, requiring the power source supplied by the rack
system.
After unpacking your _MIMAS module, please check for any visible damage that may have occurred
during transit. If there is any problem, please contact your dealer immediately!
!!!Ensure the rack is completely powered down before attempting
installation to prevent damage to the module!!!
Module installation walkthrough:
Choose the position in the rack to which you will install the module and slide it in so that the edge
connector of the module aligns with the matching connector in the rack. A gentle push and the module
should slide home into the rack connector. Attach the front panel to the front of the rack with screws
supplied by your rack manufacturer. This is important for mechanical rigidity. Do not over tighten these
screws to avoid stripping out the threads. Apply power, test that everything is working OK, and most
importantly, enjoy!
500 series compatibility note:
Each WesAudio device in ng500 (Next Generation 500 series) product line is equipped with special
connector. This connector is an extension to 500 series, and allows your device to be managed/recalled
through specialized GCon protocol (e.g. _Titan 500 series 10 slots frame).
