Hardware Installation and Setup
Introduction
This chapter describes how to install and set up the EmergeTM DM2000 Desktop Manager
(Management Appliance).
NOTE: The first time you access the Management Appliance, enter admin as the user name and password as
the password. The admin account is authorized to perform all configuration and access all managed devices and
cannot be removed or renamed.

Safety Precautions

To avoid potentially fatal shock hazard and possible damage to equipment, please observe the
following precautions:
Do not use a 2-wire power cord in any product configuration.
Test AC outlets at the target device and monitor for proper polarity and grounding.
Use only with grounded outlets.
NOTE: The AC inlet is the main power disconnect.

Rack Mount Safety Considerations

Elevated Ambient Temperature: If installed in a closed rack assembly, the operating tempera-
ture of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Use care not to exceed the
rated maximum ambient temperature of the switch.
Reduced Air Flow: Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of
airflow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
Mechanical Loading: Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous
condition does not exist due to uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit Overloading: Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the
supply circuit and the effect that overloading of circuits might have on overcurrent protection
and supply wiring. Consider equipment nameplate ratings for maximum current.
