Putting the receiver into operation

CAUTION!

Risks when rack mounting the receiver!

When installing the device in a closed or multi-rack assembly, please consider that, during operation, the ambient temperature, the mechanical loading and the electrical potentials will be different from those of devices which are not mounted into a rack.

￿Make sure that the ambient temperature within the rack does not exceed the permissible temperature limit specified in the specifications (see page 51).

￿Ensure sufficient ventilation; if necessary, provide additional ventila- tion.

￿Make sure that the mechanical loading of the rack is even.

￿When connecting to the power supply, observe the information indi- cated on the type plate. Avoid circuit overloading. If necessary, provide overcurrent protection.

￿When rack mounting, please note that intrinsically harmless leakage currents of the individual mains units may accumulate, thereby exceeding the allowable limit value. As a remedy, ground the rack via an additional ground connection.

Rack mounting To mount the receiver into a rack, you require the GA 3 rack adapter (see one receiver “Accessories and spare parts” on page 49):

￿Secure the rack mount “ears”  of the GA 3 rack adapter to the receiver in the same way as described for the stacking elements (see page 11).

￿Secure the blanking plate of the GA 3 rack adapter to one of the rack mount “ears”  using two recessed head screws (M 6x10).
