Mounting the EDID 101

The EDID 101 is housed in a 1/8 rack width, 3" deep, 1" high metal enclosure. The small form factor is ideal for connecting the EDID 101 between two devices that would otherwise be directly connected.

NAfter the EDID 101 is mounted, the side panel may be inconvenient or impossible to access for configuration. To avoid uninstalling, program it prior to mounting.

See page 10, "EDID 101D/EDID 101V Operation" for programming details.

Tabletop placement

Attach the four included rubber feet to the bottom of the unit and place it in any convenient location.

Rack mounting

UL guidelines for rack mounting

The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines are relevant to the safe installation of the EDID 101 in a rack:

1. Elevated operating ambient temperature — If the unit is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore, install the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma: +122 °F, +50 ° C) specified by Extron.

2. Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in the rack so the equipment gets adequate air flow for safe operation.

3. Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack so that uneven mechanical loading does not create a hazardous condition.

4. Circuit overloading — Connect the equipment to the supply circuit and consider the effect that circuit overloading might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Give appropriate consideration to the equipment nameplate ratings.

5. Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular attention to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (such as power strips).
