Assembly Procedure

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

2)Locate the right and left side rack mount brackets. Install the rack mount brackets using eight 8-32 x 5/8" button head Torx screws. Refer to Figure 2-4for guidance. The VXIplug&play mounting holes must be aligned where all three mounting holes are directly over the holes on the vertical rails of the rack. In addition, the VXIplug&play mounting flanges should cover exactly nine full EIA rack units.

3)Once the rack mount kit has been installed, the mounting receptacle can be installed. Please refer to the instructions provided with the mounting receptacle for assistance in its installation. This hardware is not provided with Option 101. The 10-32 x 7/8" flat head Phillips screws are provided for this purpose.
