Let me start out by saying, if you have not yet upgraded your amp to at least v 2.0, you need to do that in order to take advantage of the VDI board. If you have been too intimidated to upgrade your OS, then installing the VDI board is definitely not for you. I am not at all saying that it is difficult to install the VDI board by yourself, but it is not for the weak at heart. In addition, it will probably take the better part of an hour to complete this procedure. It wouldn't hurt to have an extra set of hands around (I did most of it with one hand but a couple parts I had to put the camera down and wished I had help). I will denote the parts that could use an extra set of hands.
By the way you can click on the links to see full sized pictures if you need more detail.
First of all lets look at what comes in the Box.
As you can see, you get the VDI board, the Upgrade manual from Line 6 (for technicians), a
Variax to Vetta ether-net cable with XLR style connections, and a bag. What's in the bag…well a data ribbon cable, an inline power adapter (power supply/extender), an allen wrench and 6 screws.
In addition to install the cable you will need a couple of strong arms, a clear area to work, and a good Phillips head screwdriver (electric or drill with adapter would work best!!!!). Lets get to work
