TM ZEUS Series: microZEUS with Flying Bus Boards
Zeus Series: microZEUS with Flying Bus Boards The uZEUS is a 4HP power supply module for Eurorack format synthesizers. This version comes with two (2) flying bus boards that are already attached to the module. An additional connection is available on the uZEUS for attaching an extra flying bus board if needed. The flying bus boards use a keyed connector, ensuring that module power cables can only be connected in the correct position.
Zeus Series: microZEUS with Flying Bus Boards Tiptop Audio has the following recommendations for connecting your modules and using your uZEUS: The uZEUS is designed to power systems ranging from 3U to 6U of 84HP of mixed analog and digital modules. As you keep adding modules to your system beyond 3U x 84HP we recommend a simple test that will help you protect your uZeus and adapter from mistakenly getting overloaded and eventually failing.
Zeus Series: microZEUS with Flying Bus Boards Using the –12V Rail: The –12V rail uses a switching regulator. This switching regulator needs to have a minimum load of 100mA (out of 500mA) at any given time. The uZEUS has a factory setting to self consume this current. If your uZEUS is powering more than four (4) analog modules you can then disable this setting if desired to make this 100mA available for use by your modules.
Zeus Series: microZEUS with Flying Bus Boards Creating Longer Bus Boards: The Flying Bus Boards were designed for standard 19” (84HP) racks. If it becomes necessary to extend your Flying Bus Boards, the process is simple: purchase another Flying Bus Board and connect the female end to the last male connector on the existing Flying Bus Board.
