Allen&Heath iDR0 - Manual (Page 8)

8 iDR0 User Guide
Installation
Free standing
The iDR0 can be operated as a freestanding unit for shelf or floor operation. Check that its plastic
feet are fitted. Ensure adequate air flow around the unit. It must not be covered in any way. Always
stand the unit on a firm flat surface away from any soft furnishings or carpet.
Rack mounting
The iDR0 is designed as a 19 inch rack mount unit and will occupy 2U (3.5 inches) of rack space.
The plastic feet may need to be removed before rack mounting. Retain the feet for future use.
Ensure natural convection of airflow around the unit by allowing good ventilation below, in front of
and behind the unit. Rack equipment known to produce a significant amount of heat should not be
mounted directly below the unit. Forced convection by means of a rack mounted fan-tray may be
desirable in situations where space is restricted and the ambient air temperature is high.
Flight casing
We recommend that you use a professional grade flight case with shock mounted internal rack frame.
Ensure adequate ventilation in front of and behind the unit when it is powered.
Cables
Make sure the cables are not stretched in any way and are routed to avoid becoming kinked or
damaged. Allow enough service loop for access and removal of the unit. Ensure all connectors are
fully plugged in and locked.
CAT5 cables
iLive systems are shipped with 1.8 metre CAT5 cables as standard. Depending on type, cables up to
100 metres (330 feet) may be used for applications where the Surface is positioned remote from the
MiniRack. Cable approved by Digigram for EtherSound use should be sourced. Check the Digigram
web site for further information (www.ethersound.com/technology/compatibility.php). Allen & Heath
can supply an 80 meter drum of suitable cable if needed, part number AH7000. Two of these are
required to connect control and audio between the MiniRack and the Surface. One is required to
connect audio between the MiniRack and another remote rack.
Dimensions
Do not obstruct the ventilation
slots. Ensure adequate air flow around
the iPS10.
Ensure proper grounding. Do not
remove the IEC mains cord earth
(ground) connection.
Do not remove the cover or
modules of the iDR0. There are no
user serviceable parts inside.
