Section II
INSTALLATION
GENERAL
This section of the manual addresses the physical installation
of the 552 at its operating location, the ‘nuts and bolts’ of con-
necting the unit. This section also references pages where per-
tinent setup options and adjustments are discussed.
Unpacking and
Inspection
As soon as the equipment is received, inspect carefully for any
shipping damage. If damage is found or suspected, notify the
carrier at once, and then contact Inovonics.
We recommend that you retain the original shipping carton and
packing materials for possible return or transshipment. If re-
turned for Warranty repair, shipping damage sustained as a re-
sult of improper packing for return may invalidate the Warran-
ty!
IT IS IMPORTANT to register the Warranty of your 552. This
assures coverage of the equipment under Warranty terms, pro-
vides a means of tracing lost or stolen gear, and adds the user
to a database to receive specific service instructions or soft-
ware/firmware updates when issued. Register online at:

NOTE: Many users choose first to familiarize themselves with
equipment on the bench or at their desk, in which case they
may immediately turn to Section III that describes setup and
use of the 552 monitor. When the time comes, do please refer
back to this section to confirm proper physical installation and
interconnection with other station equipment.
MOUNTING, POWER AND ENVIRONMENT
Rack
Requirement
The 552 is a 1U rack-mount package, occupying a nominal
1¾ inches of vertical rack space.
Heat Dissipation
A power-frugal product, the 552 generates very little heat itself
and is specified for operation within an ambient temperature
range between freezing and 120°F/50°C. Because adjacent, less-
efficient gear may radiate substantial heat, be sure that the
equipment rack is adequately ventilated to keep internal tem-
perature below the specified maximum ambient.
