Failure to observe this caution could cause the StackMaster™TR 16-Port Unit to overheat and could result in data transmission failure and/or equipment damage.

CAUTION: The StackMaster™TR 16-Port Unit with the SNMP Management Board must be installed at the top of the stack. Failure to observe this caution will invalidate the SNMP network management.

To install the StackMaster™TR 16-Port Stack on table or other flat surface:

1.Determine StackMaster™TR 16-Port Unit to be installed at bottom of stack.

2.Carefully turn StackMaster™TR 16-Port Unit to side and install four (4) rubber feet:

Remove protective paper from adhesive surface of rubber foot.

Position rubber foot at bottom corner of Lanmaster Unit

Secure rubber foot to StackMaster™TR 16-Port Unit.

Repeat for remaining rubber feet.

3.Return StackMaster™TR 16-Port Unit to upright position.

4.Repeat step 2 for next StackMaster™TR 16-Port Unit to be installed.

5.Carefully set StackMaster™TR 16-Port Unit on StackMaster™TR 16-Port Unit previously installed.

6.Continue steps 4 and 5 until all StackMaster™TR 16-Port Units have been installed.

NOTE: The mounting brackets that come installed on the StackMaster™TR 16-Port Unit can be removed and saved for later use.
