Mechanical installation
Important user information
Do not remove covers. No user serviceable parts inside, refer servicing to qualified service
personnel. For continued compliance with international EMC regulations, it is important that all
cables be screened, and connected as follows: Audio cable screens to their BLU-80 connector
ground. Control cable screens to the ground screws adjacent to the connector. Network cables
should be of type CAT.5, fitted with a clip-on ferrite sleeve (STEWART TYPE 28A2029-0A0) near
the network socket end. This equipment must be earthed. It should not be necessary to remove
any protective earth or signal cable shield connections to prevent ground loops. Any such
disconnections are outside the recommended practice of BSS Audio, and will render the EMC or
safety certificate void.
If the unit is likely to undergo extreme vibration through extensive road trucking and touring, the
unit must be supported at the rear and/or sides to lessen the stress on the front mounting flange.
The necessary support can generally be bought ready-built as a rack tray, or the BLU-80/BLU-
32/BLU-16 unit can be mounted between other units. Damage caused by insufficient support is
not covered by the warranty. To prevent cosmetic damage to the front panel finish, use protective
plastic cups under the rack mounting bolts.
