Chapter 2 Installation

Installing your console and monitor

This section includes installation instructions for Expression and connec-
tor and pinout specifications for the monitor. Follow these steps to
install your Expression :
1. Place console on a hard, stable, flat surface with at least 6 inches of
space behind it for ventilation and cable clearance . Console should
be at least 6 feet away from dimmers and high-current AC lines.
Caution: Do not leave the console in a road case tray or on a soft
surface. This will inhibit proper ventilation.
2. Verify that your dimmer connector pinout is correct . Pinouts for
several dimmer types are listed on pages 2 - 8 through 2 - 9 . If your
dimmer type is not listed, contact your dealer or ETC.
Caution: Your dimmer control common must be compatible with
console control common; they must either be the same level, or the
dimmer control common must float. Verify compatibility with your
dealer if you are not sure.
3. Insert the key into the power switch, and turn it to the Off position.
4. Insert the female end of the power cord in the connector labeled
Power in on the console's back panel.
5. Insert the male end of the console power cord in a grounded 120
VAC outlet . For 220 VAC operation, consult ETC.
6. Insert the female end of the monitor power cord in the monitor
connector, and the male end of the monitor power cord in the
console connector labeled Power out .
