Power Supply
• UAD-2 Satellite requires external DC power. It ships with an external power
supply adapter that converts AC power to 12VDC @ 1.25A. AC input into
the adapter can be 100V–240V at 50–60 Hz; several AC plug adapters
are provided for international use.
• The power supply DC output connector is ring=ground/negative and
tip=hot/positive. UAD-2 Satellite is diode-protected; the unit will not be
damaged if the wrong DC polarity (or AC input) is connected.
• The Quad Satellite draws a maximum of 7 watts; the Duo draws 4 watts.
• The acceptable range of power input for UAD-2 Satellite is 9VDC – 15VDC
@ 1A (9 Watts minimum).
Note:
UAD-2 Satellite requires the external power supply. It cannot be
powered by the FireWire bus, nor can it supply bus power to other FireWire
devices.
