2.0 INSTALLATION
This chapter provides instruction in the proper installation of the BMX III Broadcast Operations
Console. Included are sections describing general installation guidelines, cable preparation, mainframe
configuration, grounding and shielding, power connection, patch point connection, audio and logic
connection, remote control connection, and module internal option switches.
2.1 GENERAL GUIDELINES
The BMX III should be carefully unpacked and inspected for any shipping damage. If the inspection
reveals any damage, immediately file a claim with the delivering carrier. The packing material should
be kept as evidence of mishandling, as well as to allow return of the equipment to the factory, if
necessary.
Included with the console are the tool and spare parts kits (as described in Chapter 6), and the appropriate
connector kit, which contains all of the Molex connector housings and pins necessary to prepare the
audio input/output and logic cables (as described in Section 2.2).
The console is physically installed by setting it into a cutout in the work surface of the studio cabinetry
(console and cutout dimensions are provided in Figure 2.1). Prior to installing the mainframe, a final
check should be made to confirm that the cutout dimensions are correct. Also, be sure that the cabinetry
is in its proper position and leveled, as it is unlikely that the cabinetry can be moved, squared or leveled
once the weight of the BMX III has been added.
NOTE: The cabinetry in which the BMX III is to be mounted must be of sufficiently sturdy construction
to support the console.
