1. Decide where the FPC 6000 will be mounted.
2.
Use the four provided rack-mounting screws to secure the FPC 6000 to any standard
equipment rack or control console. Follow the instructions in the “Underwriters Laboratories
(UL) Guidelines for Rack Mounting” (see the next page) to ensure the rack is mounted safely.
Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Guidelines for Rack Mounting
The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines are relevant to the safe installation of the
FPC 6000 in a rack:
•
Elevated operating ambient temperature — If the unit is installed in a closed or multi-
unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be
greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore, install the equipment in an environment
compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma: +104 °F, +40 °C) specified by
Extron.
•
Reduced air flow
— Install the equipment in the rack so that the equipment gets adequate
air flow for safe operation.
•
Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack so that uneven mechanical
loading does not create a hazardous condition.
•
Circuit overloading — Connect the equipment to the supply circuit and consider the
effect that circuit overloading might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.
Give appropriate consideration to the equipment nameplate ratings when addressing this
concern.
•
Reliable earthing (grounding)
— Maintain reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment.
Pay particular attention to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch
circuit (such as the use of power strips).
Wall Mounting the FPC 6000
The FPC 6000 can also be wall-mounted, either using the Extron BB 700M wall box or directly
into drywall. Some local building codes require the touchpanel to be mounted in a wall box. To
use the BB 700M, see the
TLP Pro 1220MG, TLP Pro 1520MG, and TLP Pro 1720MG Setup
Guide , at www.extron.com . If the wall box is not required by local building codes, you can
mount the touchpanel directly into drywall.
ATTENTION:
•
Do not install the FPC 6000 in a fire resistant rated wall or partition assembly.
• Ne pas installer le FPC 6000 dans un mur résistant au feu ou une cloison.
• All structural steps and electrical installation must be performed by qualified personnel
in accordance with local and national building codes and electrical codes.
• Toute étape structurelle et installation électrique, doit être effectuée par un personnel
qualifié, conformément aux codes du bâtiment, aux codes incendie et sécurité, et
aux codes électriques, locaux et nationaux.
