  • Page 14 Construction 24. Mounting the power transformer and mains voltage selection Mount the transformer as in the drawing (see also the picture on the packaging) Use the supplied straps (4 pcs) to fix the transformer. Primary windings (MAINS) connection: Check the table on the PCB for the correct voltage selection and connect the wires : For 230V (220V to 240V), edge orange, then brown and black.
  • Page 15 Enclosure preparation 25. Enclosure preparation q Cut the thread in the holes for the enclosure feet in one of the alumi- num profiles, us- ing the supplied FIG. 1 special M4 screw as a tap. q Mount the feet on the aluminum profile, using two M4 hexagonal Al- len screws.
  • Page 16 Enclosure preparation q Position the main PCB in the aluminum profile that is prepared with the feet. q Mark the center position of the three fixation holes on the aluminum. A refer- ence indication is also on the PCB edge. FIG.
  • Page 17 Enclosure preparation q Using an ohmmeter, measure between the edge of the aluminum profile and the back spacer, if there is a good electric contact (less then 10 ohm). If not, repeat the above step to remove the paint under the spacer. FIG.
  • Page 18 Final assembly 26. final PCB mount RE-CHECK CAREFULLY THE PCB FOR MOUNTING AND SOLDERING ERRORS! q Mount the pcb into the enclosure, check the position of the power IC. The IC support must fit onto the previously inserted hexagonal bolts. Make sure there is silicone compound between the IC support and the enclosure! Glue the included insert C between the transformer and housing.
  • Page 19 Final assembly 27. Speaker and mains connector assembly Prepare the wiring of the mains connector like in the drawing. First mount the switch into the mains connector assembly. Do not forget to isolate the soldering connections using a piece of shrink tube. Use the supplied 0.5mm wire: Blue for Neutral Brown for Live...
  • Page 20 Final assembly 28. Final assembly and connection q Solder a 15cm (2.5mm) wire to the LS connectors. Black = negative, Red= positive, use a shrink tube to isolate the connection.. q Solder a spade terminal to the other end, do not forget the terminal isolation. 15cm q Mount (insert) the mains connector onto the rear panel.
  • Page 21 Final assembly q Mount the rear panel onto the enclosure, using two M4 Allen screws. q Connect the speaker wires to the speaker output tabs. Check the polatity! Black= LS-, Red= LS+. DO NOT CONNECT THE MAINS WIRING WITH THE PCB YET!
  • Page 22 Final assembly 29. Preparing the front panel q Connect the two wired connector to the meter, RED = +, BROWN = - to the meter. q Mount the power meter onto the front panel. q Fix the meter using a piece of transparent ad- hesive tape (four sides).
  • Page 23 Test 30. Test 21. Mains voltage connection Check again all connections of transformer and mains preparation q Connect the mains wires to the mains connector SK3, Blue= Neutral, green/ yellow= Earth. q Connect a 60W light bulb in series with the Live (Brown wire) and the Live q Connect a 10cm blue wire to the connection on the PCB.
  • Page 24 Test Test continued: Now push the DC protection test button SW2, the bulb should light if the but- ton is pressed. Be careful not to touch any exposed live parts. Disconnect the mains plug. Now the brown Live wire can be connected directly to the connector AK3. Check the user manual to test all functions and operation of the unit.
