(26.7cm), not including knobs. RECEPTOR VIP is designed for table-top and rackmount use.
Weight: RECEPTOR VIP weighs approximately 15 lbs (6.8kg).
Power Requirements: 100-240VAC input, 50/60Hz, 2A Max, auto-power ranging. Can be used anywhere in the
world with the proper power connector. If the power feeding this device is subject to brownouts or interruption, we
recommend connecting it to an uninterruptible power supply that can supply 250 watts of power.
Operational Guidelines: RECEPTOR VIP is designed for the rigors of the touring evironment, however we recommend
the following operational conditions to ensure maximum reliability and longevity: The system can operate from 35
degrees F to 95 degress F. If required, you can operate it between 32 degrees F to 110 degrees F. Operation at
extreme temperatures is not recommended for extended periods of time; provide supplemental cooling if required.
When the unit is powered on, the standard hard drive is vulnerable to mechanical failure if subjected sudden
acceleration. For applications where unit will be installed on moving stages, or motor vehicles, or at extremely low
temperatures, we highly recommend installing the optional Solid State Hard Drive which has no moving parts.
Transportation temperature range: -20 to 140 degrees F, assuming unit is not subjected to condensation.
