INSTALLING THE UPX-10 TRANSMITTER
UNPACKING
Upon receiving your shipment, verify that the number of boxes shown as shipped
on the freight receipt has been received. Also check immediately for damage to
boxes which may have occurred during shipment. Notify both the dealer and the
freight carrier if damages or losses are found, so that claims may be expedited.
Unpack the unit or units carefully. We recommend saving the shipping cartons;
they are useful for reshipping the equipment at a future date. Should service ever
be required, remember that your authorized Clear-Com service center knows
your equipment best and has the training and test equipment necessary to restore
your equipment to its peak performance.
INSTALLING THE SYSTEM IN THE RACK
The UPX-10 can be mounted in a single rack space (1RU) of a standard 19-inch
(48 cm) rack, or it can operate as a freestanding unit.
For stand-alone operation : Peel off the protective paper from the four rubber
feet and attach to the bottom of the chassis at each corner.
For use in a rack : The detachable rack-mounted “ears” must first be installed on
the UPX-10 as follows:
1. Loosen, but do not remove, the four screws on the two sides of the unit that
hold the top cover onto the chassis.
2. Slide the top cover towards the rear of the unit as far as it will go–about 1/8
inch (3 mm).
3. Slide the smaller end of one rack-mounted ear into the grooves in each end of
the front panel. Be sure that the ear’s vertical-locking groove is facing the unit’s
rear.
4. Slide the top cover forward so that the front edges of the cover engage the
locking grooves in the rack-mounted ears.
5. Tighten the cover onto the chassis (four screws).
6. Verify that the rack-mounted ears are secure and will not slip out.
The UPX-10 is now ready to be installed in a standard 19-inch (48 cm) rack
using the screws and finish washers provided, or the equivalent metric hardware.
ATTACHING THE ANTENNA
Attach the whip antenna or the optional dipole antenna to the antenna
connector on the rear panel. Make certain that the antenna connector is screwed
on tightly and is not crossthreaded.
• You can place the
UPX-10 in a rack, or
operate it as a
freestanding unit.
• Installing the the
detachable rack-mounted
“ears” on the UPX-10
requires six steps.
• Attach the whip antenna
or the optional dipole
antenna to the connector
on the rear panel.
