hello,

let'say i want to buy a serge m-boat with an SQP
m-odule (and later add one more m-odule).
can i power the m-boat from my serge PS6 (i think its
a ps6 because its big and has 4 XLR sockets on the
front, must be a ps6, right?)
now my ps6 powers 5 panels, so i still can power one
more serge panel...
i am asking that in order to save a bit of money from
buying a ps2a that i now do not need (yet...).
any info is valuable!
if yes, do i need an extra cable to connect my serge
distroboard (that i think its called PSD) to the
m-boat?
does this cable come with the m-boat?

thanks in advance,
best regards, :-)
Bakis.

Hi Bakis,

One M-boat has a power requirement that is equivalent to a STS/Serge panel (Shop series or Custom).

What you have is actually a [PS12], denoted by the four 5-pin "XLR" connectors. (The [PS6] has two). The PS12 can power up to 12 panels (the PS6, 6 panels).

What you'll need to connect your M-boat to the [PSD], running off the [PS12], is a [PBX] "Power Braid Extender" cable (18" long) OR a [PBXL] "Power Braid Extender Long" same except (24" in length). These are $ 20 / $ 25 each, respectively. No [PS2a] is required for his configuration.

that's great!
thanks Matt!

ok, few more questions:

and, (as i already have two PSD's and two xlr
connecting cables that go from the ps12 to the two
psd's, )
when i need to buy more m-boats, i just need to buy
more 5-pin 'XLR' cables and more PSD's, to connect the
ps12 to the new serge PSD's, and to buy more "power
braid extender"(PBX or PBXL) cables to connect the new
PSD's to the new m-boats, right?
also, that PBX cable, has one male and one female
molex connector, or two males?? (trying to figure out
how the PBX cable will connect the PSD board to the
back of the m-boat...)
is the molex connector in the back of the m-boat that
receives power, male or female?
and one more question: in order to bring the greek 230
volts level down to the us 110volts, i use a 150watts
step-down transformer. in case my ps12 will eventually
be powerring up 12 serge panels, will i need to
upgrade this stepdown transformer to a bigger one, and
if yes, how much watts this bigger step-down
transformer should be then?
will my 150watts step-down transformer be ok for my
ps12 powering up, say, up to 9 serge panels?

many thanks for your help!
best regards, :-)
