Speck Electronics LiLo - Manual (Page 13)

Chapter 2 Installation & Setup 9
The following information should give you the basics on how to install the
LiLo mixer and power supply. The proper installation of the LiLo requires a
clear understanding of audio wiring, AC distribution, grounding, and shielding
techniques.
If the LiLo is being installed into a larger studio or as a sidecar/expander to a
host console, it may be necessary to retain the services of someone
experienced in these matters.
One of the primary reasons that the power supply of the LiLo is external is to
insure that the power transformer enclosed within the power supply chassis
maintains a safe distance from the active electronics of the LiLo. For that
matter, any device that has a strong magnetic power field should be kept at a
reasonable distance from the LiLo and its audio cables.
Because the power supply does not use a cooling fan, it is silent and can be
located in the same room as the mixer. It is important that the ventilation
holes are not obstructed and that the unit is operated in free air to prevent
overheating. Allow a minimum of 4”(100mm) of clearance from all
ventilation holes.
The LiLo's power supply can operate with 100 VAC, 120 VAC, 220 VAC,
230 VAC, or 240 VAC 50/60hz. Before switching “on” the power, you should
verify that the voltage setting on your power supply is configured to match the
AC mains requirements of your country. If the AC mains voltage needs to be
changed, this procedure should be performed and checked by a qualified
technician.
Before connecting the DC power supply cable to the LiLo, make certain the
power switch is set to the “off” position.
To connect the power supply to the mixer, fit the circular connectors at each
end of the DC power supply cable to the chassis mount receptacles that are
mounted on the power supply and the rear of the Lilo. The respective
connectors are keyed so the plug and chassis mount receptacle can fit in only
one direction. When the connectors have been mated, rotate the circular
locking ring clockwise until it stops.
