Using the Model 90 Modular Selector
®
The Audio Authority
Model 90 provides a convenient solution
for demonstrating and switching small shelf-top products. When
equipped with the appropriate AccessEZ
the Model 90 can compare four of virtually any electronic prod-
uct. If product capacity of eight or more is required, two or more
Model 90 units can be combined to form a more complex switch-
ing network.
Applications
The following applications illustrate the scope of the Model 90's capability for product demonstration:

Assembly (Some Required)
Remove the top cover of the Model 90 by pulling it toward the rear. After loading the Model 90 and connect-
ing products, push the cover back on.
The Model 90 comes with its own wall power pack and assembly hard-
ware. AccessEZ switching expansion modules must be purchased
separately. To load switching expansion modules in the Model 90's
chassis, remove the black protective sleeve from the 5-pin headers
extending from the edges of the modules. Plug the first module into the
hidden 5-pin receptacle in the printed circuit board at the front of the
module compartment (Figure 2). Secure it to the floor of the compart-
ment with four of the self-tapping screws supplied. Tighten the screws just enough to prevent rattles. When
correctly tightened, the screws will protrude very slightly from the bottom of the chassis. Add a second
module if desired, plugging it into the first module and securing it to the base plate with
screws.
Mounting
The Model 90 may be set on a shelf, or
permanently mounted to the top or
bottom of a shelf with screws. Apply the
four self-adhesive feet about 1/4 inch from
the corners of the bottom surface if the
Model 90 is to be set on a shelf.
Secure the unit to the top of a shelf with the two wood screws provided
(do not use the adhesive feet with mounting screws). Place one of the
provided plastic washers under each of the large holes (Figure 3) in the
bottom plate of the Model 90, then drive a wood screw through the
plate and each washer into the shelf. Replace the top cover.
To mount the Model 90 under a shelf, pop out the hole plugs in the top cover, place plastic washers in the
holes and drive a wood screw through each one into the shelf. Load and connect the bottom plate as de-
scribed below and push it into the pre-mounted top cover (Figure 4).
