Mains Power Connection (via PSU)
The VN-MATRIX must be powered from a 12 Volt DC regulated supply. A suitable mains-operated
power supply unit (PSU) is provided. The mains connection details that follow relate to the PSU.
NEVER CONNECT THE VN-MATRIX DIRECTLY TO THE MAINS.
To ensure CE compliance ALWAYS use the PSU provided.
If a backup/replacement PSU is required, always use an Electrosonic
approved PSU.
Supply Requirements (for PSU)
ALWAYS observe the following instructions to ensure safe and reliable
operation of the PSU.
ALWAYS ensure that the mains supply voltage is single phase only and is within the permitted range:
100 – 240V AC (0.45A Max.) 50 – 60Hz.
NEVER connect the PSU to a DC supply.
DO NOT allow the mains power point to be overloaded. This is particularly important to check when
powering several items of equipment from a single power point (e.g. within rack-mounted
installations).
WARNING: THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE GROUNDED / EARTHED.
WARNING: To avoid the possible risk of electric shock or product damage due to condensation,
ALWAYS allow the PSU to become acclimatized to ambient temperature and humidity for at least
thirty minutes BEFORE switching on. This is particularly important when moving the unit from a cold
to a warm location.
