2.1 Equipment Mounting
This section describes the physical mounting requirements for the RC3000 and optional sensor units. Wiring requirements are discussed in section 2.2.
2.1.1 RC3000 Antenna Controller
NOTE: The RC3000 unit should not be installed in the rack until the final step of the Initial Configuration (section 2.3) because access to the interior of the unit may be necessary prior to that procedure. The cables may be run through the chosen location in the rack and connected to their respective components.
The RC3000 enclosure is a standard rack mount chassis that occupies two rack units (2U). The front panel is mounted via four (4)
CAUTION: support of the back of the RC3000 is a requirement. RCI’s warranty does not cover repair to units with ripped faceplates.
The RC3000’s LCD is optimized for viewing from a 6 o’clock position. The optimum position to mount the unit would therefore be above the operator’s eye level.
The following diagram shows the typical dimensions (in inches) of the RC3000. See appendix B for exact dimensions of your controller. See section 5 for a detailed depiction of the side mounting holes.
