AC Power
The EVE P-130 RGB has an auto-ranging power supply and it can work with an input voltage range of 100
to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz. To determine the product’s power requirements (circuit breaker, power outlet, and
wiring), use the current value listed on the label affixed to the product’s back panel, or refer to the product’s
specifications chart. The listed current rating indicates the product’s average current draw under normal
conditions.
• Always connect the product to a protected circuit (a circuit breaker or fuse).
Make sure the product has an appropriate electrical ground to avoid the risk of
electrocution or fire.
• To eliminate unnecessary wear and improve its lifespan, during periods of nonuse completely disconnect the product from power via breaker or by
unplugging it.
Never connect the product to a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if
the rheostat or dimmer channel serves only as a 0 to 100% switch.
Fuse Replacement
1. Disconnect the product from power.
2. Using a flat-head screwdriver, unscrew the fuse holder cap from the housing.
3. Remove the blown fuse.
4. Replace with a fuse of the same type and rating.
5. Screw the fuse holder cap back in place and reconnect power.
Disconnect the product from the power outlet before replacing the fuse.
