Insert a circuit board into the cabinet in any slot. Turn the cabinet power switch on. If everything is all right, then a green LED at the very top of the circuit board should be lit. Ignore any other LEDs.

Turn off the cabinet power switch and remove the circuit board. Turn off the power supply and disconnect the cabinet power supply.

The new cabinet is ready to be mounted.

Hang the mounting bracket for the new cabinet.

Normally the mounting brackets for the cabinets are all mounted at the same time. Since we are adding a cabinet to an existing installation, we do not have that luxury. There are two ways to mount the new bracket.

Method 1 - This can only be done when the system is shut down.

zWhen cabinet 1 is shut down, remove it from the bracket on the wall. Use the spacer off of the new bracket, See Figure 4-6, and spot the screw holes for the new bracket.

zDrill new holes for the new bracket and secure it to the wall.

zReplace cabinet number 1 on its bracket and secure it to the wall.

Method 2 - Done while existing system is running.

zMeasure from the top right hand corner of cabinet one, 1 7/8" over and 7/8" down. This is the spot for the left hand mounting bracket screw. Place the new bracket on the wall, center the left hand mounting hole over the mark you just made, level the bracket, and mark the center of the right hand mounting hole.

zDrill the holes for the screws and secure the bracket to the wall.
