Section 3 – Pre Installation Information
Physical installation of the console is normally carried out by a specialised transportation company. In some cases this will
have been arranged by the local SSL office, in other cases by the facility.
Before the console is installed all building work should be completed and the environment MUST be clean otherwise the
warranty will be rendered invalid.
Before commissioning can take place the following must be completed:
• Air Conditioning installed, tested, blown-through and working
• Lighting installed and tested
• Cable Trunking installed
• Wall and floor finishes completed
• Power Distribution installed and tested
• Cables installed and tested
• Monitor loudspeakers installed and working
• Other utilities (telephone, water etc.) available
The cables that run between console and processor can be shipped in advance of the console in a separate kit (the pre-
install kit). These cables should be installed by the facility engineers. Instructions for installing these cables are found on
pages 25 to 35 of this manual.
Cables that may be required for the connection of ancillary functions – meters, talkback or any custom switching etc. –
are OT supplied by SSL and will need to be provided by the facility. Refer to pages 38 to 41 for cabling information.

Commissioning
All C100HDS systems include on-site commissioning by an SSL engineer. This is usually expected to take from 2 to 4 days
depending on system size, configuration and options. Large systems, or consoles split for shipment, may require an
additional 1–2 days of commissioning time.
You will be contacted by your local SSL office or agent shortly before delivery to arrange a commissioning date.

Three days of standard operator training are provided with each C100HDS system. If required, this is scheduled to take
place immediately following the commissioning period and is usually carried out by the commissioning engineer. A further
day of advanced operator training is available at additional cost.
On-site maintenance training is also available at additional cost. Training duration can be either one day for a basic
overview or two days to progress to a more advanced level.
Training should be requested at the time of order. or all training we recommend that no more than five persons attend
