• Do not use with high-current devices such as hobby arc
welders, hair dryers, and space heaters. Total power
consumption of connected equipment must not exceed
1800 watts.
• Do not use a unit if there are any signs of damage.
• No user serviceable parts inside. Do not attempt

Symbol explanations
This “lightning flash with arrowhead” symbol is intended to alert
the user of the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage”
within the products enclosure that may be of sufficient
magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
This exclamation point symbol is intended to alert the
user to the presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature
accompanying the appliance.
Unpacking
Before each ACE-315 left the factory, it was carefully
inspected for physical imperfections as a routine part of
ADCOM’s systematic quality control. This, along with full
operational and mechanical testing, should insure a
product flawless in both appearance and performance.
After you have unpacked the ACE-315, inspect it for
physical damage. Save the shipping carton and all
packing materials, as they are intended to minimize the
possibility of transportation damage, should the product
ever need to be shipped again. In the unlikely event
damage has occurred, notify your dealer immediately and
request the name of the carrier so that a written claim to
cover the damage can be initiated.
The right to any claim against a public carrier can be
forfeited if the carrier is not notified promptly in writing and
if the shipping carton and packing materials are not
available for inspection. Save all packing materials until
the claim has been settled.
Installation
For maximum performance and extended product life,
install the ACE-315 in a well ventilated area away from
external heat sources like radiators and heat vents.
For professional installations, the ACE-315 may be
mounted in a standard 19-inch rack using the optional
RM-3 rack-mount adapters available through ADCOM
dealers.
Connections
Optional: Attach the supplied color-coded AC cord
labels to each AC cord to be installed. Place a label at
each end of the AC cord to easily identify which cord is
connected to each product.
System AC Connections
Begin by connecting products which require full-time
AC power to the rear panel jacks labeled “unswitched” 1).
