Emax

You are putting a internal PC Zip100 in the rack.......Its 5Vs dont know how much room 
is in the E rack....but the int. power supply might make more heat....I might get a
used 200w computer power supply and make a plug to go into the E rack....to the zip
if this is a studio rack not a road....unit....but if in a road rack that would be ok to.

  Most electronic equipment is designed for specific
  components in the system. I would not recommend you
  try to adapt the unit since you are not taking into
  consideration things such as ripple/noise. The long
  term effects of foreign equipment into the system. My
  advise is to make it simple. Enclose the external
  powersupply into the emax unit. Tap into the line
  current (before it enteres the Emax P/S). Mount it
  inside, this way you only have one plug without
  tapmering with the Emax's DC currents.
