theprotectiveearth(PE)conductorintegratedinthemainscable.Unitswithbatteryoperation(<60V,classIIIequipment)mustbeearthedseparately.
Earthing the unit is one of the measures for protection against electrical shock hazard(dangerousbodycurrents).Hazardousvoltagemaynotonlybecausedby a defective power supply insulation, but may also be introduced by the connected audio or control cables.
If the unit is installed with one or several external connections, its earthing must be provided during operation as well as while the unit is not operated. If the earthing connection can be interrupted, e.g. by unplugging the mains plug of an external power supply unit, an additional, permanent earthing con-nection must be installed using the provided earth terminal.
For additional information on earthing, please refer to the Operating Instruc-tions file on this same CD.

6 Setup of the fixed-frame Version location The console must be set up on a flat surface. In any case, free air circulation
must be guaranteed through all the air vents on the console’s bottom, side, rear and top. The air vents must never be covered with e.g. a notepad or a manual. The console must never be placed on a soft surface, and the rubber feet at its bottom must not be removed.
temperature Regulations The unit must not be used in conditions of excessive heat or cold, near any source of moisture, in excessively humid environments, or in positions where it is likely to be subjected to vibration or dust. The ambient temperature range for normal operation of the unit is +5...+35° C.
Assembly Fix the main screen with the four supplied screws to the mounting holes [1] attheconsole’srear;amatchingAllenkeyissupplied.Connectthescreen’scable to the rear-panel SCREEN [2] socket.

8 Power-up The power switch is located next to the 100-240V~ [10] mains inlet. If using an external DC power supply unit connected to 24V DC IN [9], the
console can be switched on and off with the PSU’s power switch. For battery operation an external switch must be connected in series with the
supply cable. Please note that for battery operation, an external, UL approved fuse (T 5 A H 250 V UL/CSA) must be connected in series with one of the supply lines as well.
After switching on, the console performs a self-test routine, starts the operat-ing software and loads the initial snapshot.

For easier wiring of single GPI and/or GPO signals, this break-out box can be used. 16 GPI signals and 12 of the 16 GPO signals of a GPIO card with relayoutputs(A949.0436)arewiredtosingle,4-pin‘Combicon’terminals(seebelow),providingtherelaycontactsoropto-couplerinputs,aswellasGNDandashortcircuit-proof5VDCsupply.
If voltages exceeding 50 V (AC or DC) are switched, the break-out box must be placed within a closed rack in order to avoid shock hazards by touching the contacts.
Fourofthe16GPOsignals(GPO1...4,marked in black on the front panel)are connected to solid-state relays whose power terminals are wired to the ‘Combicon’ terminals.Thesepowercontactscan switchAC loads from24...240 V with a maximum total current of 5 A over all 4 relays.
For safety reasons, these four terminals have no additional GND and 5 V supply. All remaining low-voltage terminals (GPI 1...16, GPO 5...16) are coded on pin #4 in order to prevent high-voltage connectors being inserted by mistake.
The high-voltage connectors must be coded, as shown below; six coding elements (order no. C054.251100) are included with the break-out box.
