Installation and Operation
Installation Overview
To install and set up an IPL T S interface, follow these steps:
1. | Turn all of the equipment off. Make sure that the video sources (DSS, cable |
| boxes, or other devices), the IPL T S unit, the output devices (monitors, |
| VCRs, projectors, and so on) and the serial controller are all turned off and |
| disconnected from the power source. |
2. | Mount the IPL T S interface. See “Mounting the IPL T S Interface”, below. |
3. | Attach the cables. See “Connecting the Hardware” in chapter 3. |
4. | Connect power cords and turn on the devices in the following order: output |
| devices (projectors, monitors, speakers), IPL T S interface, serial controller or |
| computer (PC), then input devices (DSS, cable boxes, and so on). |
5. | Configure the IPL T S interface through DataViewer or Telnet, then access the |
| unit using an Internet browser. |
Mounting the IPL T S Interface
UL guidelines for rack mounting
The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines pertain to the installation of an IPL T S Series unit onto a rack.
1. Elevated operating ambient — If installed in a closed or
2. Reduced air flow — Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
3. Mechanical loading — Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
4. Circuit overloading — Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
5. Reliable earthing (grounding) — Reliable earthing of
