Rack Mounting

The KL0116 can be mounted in a 1U system rack. For convenience and
flexibility, a rack mounting kit that allows several mounting options is
provided with your KL0116 package. The various options are explained in
the sections that follow.

Standard Rack Mounting

The standard rack mounting brackets that come attached to the KL0116,
allow the unit to be installed in standard 1U racks. If the unit can fit into
your rack “as is,” simply slide it into the rack and screw it securely in
place.

Optional Rack Mounting

If there is not enough clearance for the unit to slide into the rack when the
rear flanges face outward, the problem can be resolved with the following
procedure:

1. Unscrew the rear mounting brackets from the chassis.

2. Turn the brackets so that the flanges face inward; then screw them back
into the chassis.
