Unpacking and Inspection

Your CLX-440 was packed carefully at the factory. The shipping
carton was designed to protect the unit during shipping. Please
retain this container in the highly unlikely event that you need to
return the CLX-440 for servicing.
The shipping carton should contain the following items:
• CLX-440 with the same serial number as shown on shipping
carton
• Power Cable
• This instruction manual

Installing in a Rack

The CLX-440 may be simply set on a table, or installed in a
standard 19" audio equipment rack. The rack ears are integral to
the unit.
Thermal Considerations in Rack Mounting
The CLX-440 can be mounted in an equipment rack (taking
up 2 rack spaces) or placed on a table or shelf. When you
install it, keep in mind that heat is the major enemy of
electronic equipment. Please observe the following:
• The CLX-440 is designed to perform properly over a range of
ambient temperatures from 10° C to +40° C (50° F to 104° F),
in up to 80% non-condensing humidity. These are not
absolute limits, but Alesis cannot guarantee that the CLX-440
will meet its published specs or remain reliable if operated
outside of these ranges.
• Always allow adequate ventilation behind the CLX-440. Do
not seal any enclosure that holds the CLX-440. It is not
necessary to leave an empty rack space above or below the
CLX-440 unless it runs hot enough to affect equipment
above or below it. If your environment is unusually warm
and not air conditioned, space between units will help the
units run cooler.
