The kit (Option 65) provides the necessary hardware to install a 1/8” thick acrylic door in front of the rackmounted chassis. An installation diagram is provided on the following page for ease of assembly. This option requires that the rackmount ear kit also be installed and configured for recessed mounting.

Assembly Procedure

1.Lay the chassis on a protected work surface on its long side with the voltage monitor LEDs of the chassis facing front with the power switch toward the top.

2.Locate two rackmount (cross) braces. Install one each along the front of the flanges (one on top and one on the bottom) using four (two ea.) #8 flathead screws. The lip along the long edge of each brace goes toward the front and pointing inside. The braces fit over the flanges and the screws are placed from the inside going through the flange and then into the brace.

3.Locate the front door and two hinges. Install the two hinges to the front door using four 1/2” black oxide pan head screws through the holes of the hinge with the flat washer in contact with the door and with the split lock washer between the hex nut and the flat washer.

4.Locate the latch kit and install it into the door from the side where the hinges are mounted.

5.Locate the door latch bracket and install it on the rackmount ear opposite the end where the hinges will be installed. Use Figure 1-7as a reference.

6.Locate the four tapped holes on the front surface of the rackmount ear to which the door is to be attached.
