Chapter 7 Installing the main unit 89

Installing the BCM50 unit on a desktop or shelf

To mount a BCM50 unit on a desktop or shelf, attach the supplied rubber feet to the bottom of the unit. If the BCM50 system includes additional units, you can set the additional units beside, or stack them on top of, the first unit. If you are mounting the additional units beside the first unit, attach the supplied rubber feet to the bottom of each unit. If you are stacking the additional units on top of the first unit, mount each unit into the tabs on top of another unit.

Caution: Refer to “Checking the installation prerequisites” on page 75 for acceptable environmental conditions before selecting a location for the BCM50 system.

Note: To keep the BCM50 unit operating at the optimal internal temperature, keep the top, sides, and rear clear of obstructions and away from the exhaust of other equipment.

Do not place any objects, except other BCM50 units, on top of the main unit.
