F.3 Installation of the Unit Case into a 19" Rack
The height of the unit is 1U (1.75"); the width of the unit is slightly less than
half the available mounting width. A rack adapter kit, RM-17, is available for
installing either a single unit or two units side by side in the 19" rack.
Caution Disconnect AC power before opening the unit.
Installation of a
Single Unit
Rack adapter components for installing a single unit include one short
bracket and one long bracket. Each bracket is fastened to the side walls of
the unit by two screws (with flat washers) which are inserted into the two
front holes on the side wall (The unit is supplied with nuts already in place
on the inner side wall). Note that the short bracket fastens to the left side of
the unit, and the long bracket to the right side of the unit. See Figure F-1.
Once the brackets are fastened to the side walls, the unit is ready for
installation in the 19" rack. Place the unit in the rack and fasten the brackets
to the side rails of the rack by means of the two screws situated on each side
(not included in the kit).
