Setting Up the Chassis

Installing in a Rack

Caution Do not use the handles on the dial feature cards to assist in lifting the chassis.

To install the chassis into the equipment rack, follow this procedure:

Step 1 With the mounting brackets attached to the chassis, support the chassis and align the holes in the brackets with the screw holes in the rack. (See Figure 3-4.)

Step 2 Attach the chassis to the rack with the screws you have provided. (See Figure 3-4.)

Note: The second bracket attaches to the rack at the other side of the chassis. The chassis can also be installed with the front panel forward.

Connecting the Chassis Ground

You must connect the chassis to a reliable earth ground using the ground lug (provided) and size AWG 6 (13 mm2) wire.

To attach the chassis ground, take the following steps:

Step 1 Strip one end of the ground wire to expose approximately 0.75 in. (20 mm) of conductor. Step 2 Crimp the ground wire to the ground lug, using a crimp tool of the appropriate size.

Step 3 Attach the ground lug to the chassis. (See Figure 3-5.) Use a medium flat-blade screwdriver and the screws supplied with the ground lug. Tighten the screws to a torque of 8 to 10 in-lb (0.9 to 1.1 N-m).

Step 4 Connect the other end of the ground wire to a suitable grounding point at your site.
