Removing and Refitting Modules.

A removable cover on the rear of the mixer provides access to the ribbon cable which connects to all the

modules. This cover is secured by 2 screws. Although modules can be removed and replaced from the

mixer front when necessary, removing the rear connector cover makes disconnecting modules easier

particularly if more than one module is being removed.

To remove an input module from the chassis first disconnect all connections from the module and ensure

that the power cord is disconnected. Input modules are secured by 2 screws, removing the screws will

release the module. Carefully ease the module out of the chassis and disconnect the ribbon cable

connector.

The output module is secured by 4 screws and connected by 3 connectors to the ribbon cable assembly.

We recommend that the rear connector cover is removed to facilitate disconnection of the ribbon cable if

this module is removed.

The master module is normally factory fitted to the right hand end of the chassis although the design of

the ribbon cable allows modules to be fitted into the chassis in any position. We would recommend that if

any blank modules are fitted, that one be fitted between the master module and channel modules. We

would also recommend that input modules configured for Microphone or phono cartridge are not fitted

adjacent to the master module. This avoids any stray hum pick up from the mains transformer. The

output module is the width of 3 input modules and uses 2 of the connectors for its operation.

Ensure that the connectors are fully mated before refitting the rear cover.

The modules have a clearance of approx. 0.25mm. This is deliberate to allow the modules to be easily

removed and refitted to the chassis. Use a strip of thin card (postcard) to set the spacing between the

modules when reassembling. Do not push all the modules tightly together as this will make them diffi-

cult to remove and leave an unsightly space. Remember 0.25mm is only 1/100". This is the normal

spacing clearance but in an 8 channel chassis, if you push the modules tightly together the resulting

space will be 2.5mm which is 1/10" and looks unsightly.
