System Setup
System setup is comprised of sequences each of which includes
many steps.
For error-free setup, always refer to the associated sections in the
Event Master Devices User’s Guide (R5905948).
Connections — Connect the Host computer to the USB B connector on
the EC-30. Necessary cables are provided in a new system. In the case
1
that the original cables are missing, simply use standard computer
cabling to make these connections.

You can consume extra cable length, if necessary, by passing the cable through
both tabs.
Power Connection — Connect AC power to the power supply, and
connect the power supply to DC power on the rear panel of the unit.
Tip: Running the power-supply cable through one of the strain-relief tabs
on the rear of the unit can help to keep the cable from pulling out of the
DC power connector. Loosen the screw on a relief tab; run the powersupply cable through the tab; tighten the screw.
