Rack Installation
To mount the CPX2-173 in a rack, it is first important you identify the correct holes to mount to. Please see the
following illustration. Note that a ‘U’ starts between the holes that are ½” apart. One very common problem is
trying to install into the wrong holes.
Because there are multiple styles of racks, it is not possible to provide detailed instructions on mounting the
equipment. However, there are general instructions at
http://www.chassis-plans.com/PDF/Rack_Slide_Use.pdf
for rack installation which should help.
