Before Installing in a Rack

How to Rack Mount

Before installing in a rack, be sure that the environment is within the recommended range:

OPERATING TEMPERATURE:

0º to +55ºC (32º to 131ºF)

STORAGE TEMPERATURE:

-45º to +72ºC (-49º to 162ºF)

HUMIDITY:

10% to 90%, RHL non-condensing

To rack-mount a machine:

1. Attach both ear brackets to the machine. To do so, remove the screws from each side of the machine (3 on each side), and replace those screws through the ear brackets.

!CAUTION!

When installing on a 19" rack, avoid hazards by taking care that:

1. It is located within the recommended environmental conditions, as the operating ambient temperature of a closed or multi unit rack assembly may exceed the room ambient temperature.

2. Once rack mounted, enough air will still flow around the machine.

3. The machine is placed straight in the correct horizontal position.

4. You do not overload the circuit(s). When connecting the machine to the supply circuit, overloading the circuits might have a detrimental effect on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Refer to the appropriate nameplate ratings for information. For example, for fuse replacement, see the value printed on the product label.

5. The machine is earthed (grounded) in a reliable way and is connected only to an electricity socket with grounding. Pay particular attention to situations where electricity is supplied indirectly (when the power cord is not plugged directly into the socket in the wall), for example, when using an extension cable or a power strip, and that you use only the power cord that is supplied with the machine.

2.Place the ears of the machine against the rack rails, and insert the proper screws (not provided) through each of the four holes in the rack ears.

Note:

 In some models, the front panel may feature built-in rack ears

 Detachable rack ears can be removed for desktop use

 Always mount the machine in the rack before you attach any cables or connect the machine to the power

 If you are using a Kramer rack adapter kit (for a machine that is not 19"), see the Rack Adapters user manual for installation instructions available from: http://www.kramerelectronics.com)
