Chapter 3 - System Installation
Accessibility -- The location should have adequate accessibility, space, and lighting for
future servicing and should consider the need for future expansion.
Hazard Protection -- The system should be located in an area that is protected from
flooding, flammable materials, excessive dust and vibration.
Interference -- The site should be away from radio transmitting equipment, arc-welding
devices, copying machines and other electrical equipment that are capable of generating
electrical interferences. Operation of this equipment may cause interference; in this case the
user, at their own expense, must take whatever measures may be required to correct the
interference.

Backboard Installation

A wooden backboard is recommended for all installations and must be installed when the
location has masonry or plasterboard walls.
A 1/2-inch plywood material is sufficient for most installations.
The back-board should be mounted at a convenient height, about 3 feet above the floor
and bolted in a number of places to distribute the weight of the system.
Space should be available on the bottom side of the back-board for the MDF cabling and
for optional equipment such as a music source and PFTU, etc.
It is recommended the location of each major item be roughly sketched on the
backboard as an installation layout.

Verify On-Site Equipment

Once the equipment installation site has been identified and a dedicated AC outlet, earth
ground, lighting, and ventilation are available:
1. Verify that all equipment required is on-site and has not been damaged during shipment.
2. Unpack the KSUs to assure there is no shipping damage.
3. Notice that a mounting template is packed with each KSU and this template is required
later in the installation.
4. Check that the type and quantity of boards receive is correct and optional equipment
and a Power Line Surge Protector are on-site.
5. It is not necessary to unpack the individual boards at this time.
