AC voltage for MOTU 896HD

Post by _bhawkins »

Hi, I have a MOTU 896HD that I bought and used in the U.S. for several years, and now I'm moving to France. The manual is confusing about the AC power requirement--it lists two voltages, one for the U.S. and Japan, and another for Europe. Does that mean there are two different models, and you need the right one for your location? Or does it mean that I can pop an EU adapter on the plug and it's good to go? There is nothing printed on the 896HD itself to indicate one way or the other, and there is no toggle switch. Thanks for any suggestions.

_bhawkins,

You'll notice that there is a voltage selector switch on the right side panel of the unit. This is a red switch that is recessed in the unit. You can switch it with a ballpoint pen or screw driver. Set this switch to 230v and you should be all set!
