To install an enclosure in a rack:
1. Place the enclosure in the rack and attach front-mounting screws to
hold it firmly in place (repeat for each enclosure). You may find it
easiest to install the top enclosure first and move down from there.
2. If you have a multi-enclosure system, link the enclosures. See
Chapter 3, "Linking Enclosures."
3. Following the 8Y-XL Connector and Groupings Guide, attach only
the first two input and output signals to the correct input and output
connectors on the rear of the correct enclosure. See Chapter 4,
"Attaching Inputs and Outputs."
4. Attach power to each enclosure and turn on the entire system. See
Chapter 6, "Applying Power and the Startup Sequence." WE
RECOMMEND SURGE PROTECTORS AND/OR AN AC LINE
CONDITIONER
5. Perform a test switch to ensure the system is working properly. See
Chapter 7, "Executing a Test Switch."
6. When the test switch works correctly, attach all the input and output
cables to the correct input and output connectors on the rear of each
enclosure. Refer to Chapter 4, "Attaching Inputs and Outputs" and
the "8Y-XL Connector and Groupings Guide."
If the test does not work correctly, see Chapter 7, “Executing a Test
Switch.”
