Informative annexes

These annexes collect reference data, catalog research, and planning aids. An annex marked informative imposes no requirement; an annex marked normative is cited by a requirement that applies it.

Annex Title Use it for
A Collected rail sections The rail section EIS recommends, catalog rail sections, and the screw that fits each
B Rail sections outside the recommended limits Catalog rails a new design does not copy
C Rails with no published section What is known of rails sold without a drawing
D Rail insert catalog Catalog inserts and slide nuts against the recommended section
E A-100 reference figures Where EIS restates or differs from the Doepfer pages
F Eurorack module survey Module widths, depths, and currents; case depths
G Verification measurements How each requirement is verified, and typical bench checks for a claim
H Patch level map The patch classes on one page
I Port vocabulary Names for ports that are not patch jacks
J Front panel stiffness and extra mounting holes When a wide panel needs more than four holes
K Designer's guide What each product claims, and where to start reading
L Row budget A planning worksheet for one row
M Video reference distribution The video reference behind the panel: direct links or a tree, never patched
N Expanders and inter-module links Expander headers, I²C, and analog links behind the panel
O Heat and mechanical load A row's dissipation, a case's temperature rise, screw torque, and module mass
P Rationale Why each requirement exists, one line each
Q Worked examples A module, a case, and a video row taken to their claims
