Setting up the system rack
Important! Observe the electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions indicated on page 33 when perfoming the following procedures. Do not attempt the procedures described in the following sections unless you are a qualified technician.
Equipment rack precautions
Follow the rack manufacturer's safety and installation instructions for proper rack installation.
The following additional rack safety installation measures should be considered:
•Anchor the equipment rack
The equipment rack must be anchored to an unmovable suitable support to prevent the rack from falling over when one or more systems are fully extended out of the rack assembly. You must also consider the weight of any other devices installed in the rack assembly. The equipment rack must be installed according to the manufacturer's instructions.
•Main DC power disconnect
You are responsible for installing an DC power disconnect for the entire rack unit. This main disconnect must be readily accessible, and it must be labeled as controlling power to the entire unit, not just to the system(s).
•Earth ground the rack installation
To avoid the potential for an electrical shock hazard, the rack assembly itself must be suitably earth grounded, according to your local regional electrical codes. This typically will require the rack to have its own separate earth ground. We recommend you consult your local approved electrician.
