Installing the Chassis on a Tabletop
When you install a Content Engine on a workbench or tabletop, ensure that the
surface is clean and in a safe location and that you have considered the following:
•The chassis should be installed off the floor. (Dust that accumulates on the
floor is drawn into the interior of the chassis by the cooling fans. Excessive
dust inside the Content Engine can cause overtemperature conditions and
component failures.)
•There must be approximately 19 inches (48.26 cm) of clearance at the front
and rear of the chassis for accessing network cables or equipment.
•The Content Engine must receive adequate ventilation (it is not being
installed in an enclosed cabinet where ventilation is inadequate).
Follow these steps to install the Content Engine on a workbench or tabletop:
Step1 Remove any debris and dust from the tabletop or workbench, as well as from the
surrounding area. Also make sure that your path between the Content Engine and
its new location is unobstructed.
Step2 Attach the rubber feet to the bottom of the chassis. The rubber feet have an
adhesive backing. Peel the protective tape off the adhesive and stick the feet to the
bottom of a clean chassis surface. Place one foot in each corner.
Step3 Place the chassis on the tabletop or workbench.
Step4 Ensure that no exhaust air from other equipment will be drawn into the chassis.
Also, ensure that there is adequate clearance at the front and rear of the chassis.
