Satellite Install
Location
When selecting a location to position UAD-2 Satellite during installation and
use, consider these points:
• The unit should be positioned on a secure, stable surface and not moved
during operation. This will help prevent the disruption of signals from cables
and/or connectors if they are accidentally bumped (or worse).
• For proper ventilation to prevent overheating, place UAD-2 Satellite on a
hard, flat surface and do not cover the unit. Allow air to circulate under-
neath the chassis. Multiple UAD-2 Satellite units may be safely stacked.
• High levels of radio-frequency radiation could interfere with proper opera-
tion. If possible, avoid placement near unshielded monitors, radio transmit-
ters, and similar equipment.
