3.Thread the cables through the opening in the equipment rack. Allow for enough slack in the cables to accommodate for movement during the installation process.

4.Reconnect all cables to their appropriate source/terminal locations. Refer to theConnections and Wiring section on page 19 for more detailed wiring and connection information.

Verify that the terminal end of the power cable is not connected to the a power supply before plugging in the 2-pin power connector.

To prevent repetition of the installation, test the incoming wiring by connecting the Controller’s connectors to their terminal locations and applying power. Verify that the unit is receiving power and functioning properly. Disconnect the terminal end of the power cable from the connected 12 VDC-compliant power supply.

5.Slide the unit into the rack until the attachment holes, along both sides, align to their corresponding locations on the mounting brackets, as shown in FIG. 11.

6.Secure the AC-RK to the rack by using the four #10-32 screws (80-0186) and four #10 washers (80-0342) supplied in the kit.

7.Apply power to the unit to complete the installation.
