Getting Started

You can install the rackmount kits along with the cable trays to provide vertical cable access to easily route cables to instruments above or below the mainframe while keeping lead lengths as short as possible.

You can also install an optional Lexan door with the rackmount kit.

NOTE. If you choose to extend the mainframe out of the front of the rack, the mainframe cannot accept a door.

Instructions for installing the cable trays begin on page 1±7; instructions for installing the rackmounts kits begin on page 1±12.

Enhanced Monitor The IntelliFrame Mainframe enhanced monitor lets you monitor the power supply voltages, power supply currents, slot temperature rises, fan speeds, and other VXIbus system activity via the VXIbus or a rear RS-232 interface.

Optional Front Panel The VX1410A Option 1M includes a 20-character alphanumeric display on the Display front panel with scroll keys for manual viewing for mainframe status. The

VX1420A comes standard with this option.
