Unpack the Module

To unpack the module, do the following:

1. Open the component box and remove the packing.

2. Remove the component and supplied items from the box.

Output Wiring

This module provides each stereo input with a five pin terminal block. These blocks may be

wired for balanced or unbalanced outputs as shown below. Unbalanced outputs will need a

jumper wire connected between the Signal Negative (-) and the Ground (G) on the screw

terminal block.

Grounding Procedure

To avoid damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD) when handling modules, use a grounding

strap as shown below:

Observe the following precautions to prevent ESD discharge damage:

1. Use an approved ESD wrist grounding strap or an approved wrist or ankle strap. Ensure

the grounding strap makes good skin contact.

2. Before installing or removing a Savant module, connect the clip end of the ground strap

to the threaded grounding stud on the chassis.

3. If you plan to return a replaced module to Savant Systems LLC, immediately place it in

the clamshell package that it was originally shipped in or a static shielding bag to avoid

ESD damage to the card.

NOTE: The wrist strap only protects the component from ESD voltages on the body; ESD

voltages on clothing can still cause damage.

XXXX chassis opening.

2. Slide the module in and push the lower edge of the faceplate until the panel bottoms out

against the rear face of the chassis.

3. Fasten the module to the chassis frame using the two Philips retaining screws inserted

through the two outer holes.

Removal

1. At the rear of the chassis set the power switch to Off (O) and remove the AC power

cord.

2. Remove the two outer retaining screws, as shown in the next diagram.

3. Insert card removal tool into the rectangular slot in the center of the module with the

hook facing to the side, as shown in the next diagram.

4. Lift up to ensure the tool is hooked behind the faceplate and pull the module gently

towards you.
