Attention!

This console contains static sensitive devices:

Normal precautions against static discharge should be observed when

handlingindividualmodules.Inparticular, modulesbeingpackedforshipping

for return or repair must be packed in special static protection bags before

packaging. Damage caused by static discharge may not be covered under

warranty.

Replacing Modules in a Powered-up Console:

While in an emergency situation it is possible to remove and insert modules

on a powered-up console, Wheatstone does not recommend this procedure.

Whenever possible it is best to power down the console first before removing

or replacing modules.

However, if you find you must proceed with this operation, then be sure to

take the following precaution:

When re-inserting a module, take care to replug it squarely into its

mainframe connector socket, so all edgecard fingers make contact

simultaneously. In other words, the gold-plated bus connector fingers on the

bottom edge of the module's printed circuit board must be inserted squarely

(i.e., perpendicular) to the mating socket on the bottom pan of the console

mainframe. The intent is to prevent a situation where one of the module's

power pins makes significant contact before the others. (Naturally, this

same precaution must be taken when using extenders.)

Iftheaboveinstructionsarefollowedtheprocedureshouldberoutine;ifthey

are not, you could run the risk of damaging the console's logic chips.

Again, to avoid ANY possibility of this damage, whenever possible we

stronglyrecommendpoweringdowntheconsolebeforereplacinganymodules.

Console Clock Battery Backup

Attention!

Console Clock Display Card

To activate battery backup of the console’s clock simply pull out the yellow

strip from the clock display card, that is mounted on the inside of console

meterbridge, as shown on the picture below.

Your Audioarts RD audio console is equipped with two

"module extractor tools" which are mounted underneath the

console armrest, to the far right (just above and to the left of

the righthand mainframe headphone jack).

Main module faceplates are held into the console mainframe by two

mounting screws (top and bottom). When removed the screws leave

specially threaded holes that accept the two extractor tools.

To remove a module faceplate from the mainframe:

Remove the front top and bottom mounting screws. Remove the extractor

tools from underneath the armrest, and screw each tool into a module

faceplate mounting hole. Use only four or five turns (do not over-insert; you

may damage the threaded mainframe hole underneath). Using the extractor

tools as handles, pull the module straight up out of the mainframe.
