Doepfer

i'm putting together a doepfer expansion rack...i got most of it together, but i'm not 100% sure how to apply ac to the power supply (the psu2, the newer one)..i see how to hook the buss to the power supply...i'm mounting the power supply to steel rails and will run ground to the rack chassis/earth ground/ground the rails to the chassis...basically i just need to know which pins to put the hot and neutral ac to the doepfer pwoer supply, and i'll test the dc power out before plugging in and mods...also, i'm using an in-line fuse holder, i assume that goes on the ac hot? 

another thing: from the doepfer site, it's a bit unclear how to plug the mods into the buss..they all have the ribbon cable plugged in, where does the red wire go? thinking about it now i probably just have to look at the cb of the mod and match the singnal...


i'm asking  on AH/Doepfer List  as Analogue Haven is closed until monday and i'm just plugging stuff in at this point, my self assembled rack case is ready to go...and  i'll hold no one libel if i fuck up (haha)....please feel free to email me directly, i'm on the digest (AH)...

thanks,
rg

Even if I say it again....

The PSU has to be installed by qualified personnel only. If you are not
familiar with electronics and installation of parts that are connected to
mains voltage please do not try to install the PSU!

If you are familiar with electronics and the safety rules in your country
you find the corresponding information on our website: www.doepfer.com > FAQ
> How is the wiring of mains inlet, power supply and bus boards
