Page 5: General Installation Instructions
The unit must not be heated up by external sources of heat radiation (sunlight, spot lights). Ambient Temperature Units and systems by LightViper are generally designed for an ambient temperature range (i.e. temperature of the incoming air) of +5...+40 °C. When rack mounting the units, the following facts must be considered: The admissible ambient temperature range for operation of the semiconductor components is 0 °C to +70 °C (commercial temperature range for operation). - Page 6 Earthing and Power Supply Earthing of units with mains supply (class I equipment) is performed via the protective earth (PE) conductor integrated in the mains cable. Units with battery operation (< 60 V, class III equipment) must be earthed separately. Earthing the unit is one of the measures for protection against electrical shock hazard (dangerous body currents).

Page 10: Standard Components
In its standard configuration, the Light Viper 1832 is made up of the following primary components. • The Stage Box (VIS-1832) — This is the box placed close to all the inputs. It can be placed on the stage or rack mounted with the optional VER-1832 rack ears. -
Page 11: Getting Started
Connect the inputs and returns to the stage box. (Be sure to select the appropriate Gain and Phantom Power settings) Connect the fan out cables to the console (send & return on VIS-1832, send only on VIS-1032) Turn on phantom power as necessary. - Page 12 26 dB, and 46 dB. All inputs accept balanced or unbalanced signals, eliminating the need for adapters and DI boxes. The Clip LED will flash at 3 dB below peak clipping. (+16 dBu). The XLR inputs of the VIS-1832 have an input impedance of 1.8KΩ while the TRS has an input impedance of 1.8KΩ.
- Page 13 Stage Box and any other send units that are connected via the optical Power Connector/Fuse - Power to the Mixer Box is provided with splits all sync to the clock provided by the master. The LightViper 1832 system the supplied 3-Prong IEC Power Cord. The internal power supply can accept runs natively at 24 bit/ 96k, but can also run at 24 bit / 48k with a 48k clock any voltage from 90-260 at either 50 or 60Hz.
- Page 14 Cables Fiber Cable - (TFC-0000-04) The Fiber Optic ‘cable’ is the centerpiece of the Light Viper system. Weighing 8.4 lbs. (12.6kg) for (300) feet, the cable carries all (40) signals between the stage box and the Mixer Box. Additional cables connect the Stage Box to up to two more send boxes (splits).

- Page 16 Using the Light Viper 1832 —Fixed Installation This image illustrates how the Light Viper might be used in a fixed install situation. The thin, lightweight cable can be run without conduit through walls and over drop ceilings dramatically reducing install costs.
- Page 17 Using the Light Viper 1832 —Remote Recording This image illustrates how the Light Viper might be used in a remote recording situation. The system allows for cable runs you could never consider with analog copper wires.
