Setting Up the Hardware
1
Unpack the chassis and components from the shipping box. Make sure you have all the
parts:
• the chassis (
Figure 2-1
)
• (if ordered) one or two RDU peripheral devices
• an RJ-45 Supervisory cable
• an adapter for the Supervisory cable (described in the
Note
in
Step 8
)
• a paper copy of this Installation Guide
• any additional accessories that you ordered
Note:
Shipments within North America include power cables for AC outlets. For
shipments outside North America, contact your distributor for cables that meet local
requirements to connect the BANDIT’s power supply to a power outlet.

2
Mount the VSR-1200 chassis in an equipment rack.
3
Connect an earth ground wire to the chassis, as follows: Attach a (minimum) 12 AWG
wire to the earth ground screw (next to the safety ground symbol), on the extreme right
rear or extreme left rear of the chassis (
Figure 2-2
). Use a ring terminal, such as an AMP
(part number 36160), for this connection.
Warning:
An earth ground must connect to the chassis so that the device remains
grounded even when it is not receiving power.
