Rack mounting
For optional rack mounting, do not install the rubber feet.
Mount the YCV 100, VYC 100N, or YCV 100P, on a VersaTools
™
rack shelf (RSF 123, Extron part #60-190-20; RSB 123,
part #60-604-21), or on a 6" deep rack shelf (RSU 126,
part #60-190-10; RSB 126, part #60-604-11), or on a 1U universal
rack shelf (RSU 129, part #60-190-01; RSB 129, #60-604-02).
On the standard rack shelf, the YCV 100, VYC 100N, and
VYC 100P mount in one of eight locations to the rear of the
shelf or in one of eight locations to the front of the shelf.
1
.
Remove rubber feet if they were previously installed on
the bottom of the unit.
2
.
Mount the unit on the rack shelf, using two 4-40 x 3/16"
screws in opposite (diagonal) corners to secure the unit to
the shelf.
3
.
Install blank panel(s) or other unit(s) on the rack shelf.

Mounting the YCV 100, VYC 100N, and VYC 100P on
a VersaTools rack shelf
Mounting the YCV 100, VYC 100N, & VYC 100P
The YCV 100, VYCN, and VYC 100P can be set on a table or
mounted on a rack shelf, under a desk or tabletop, or on a
projector mount.
Tabletop use
Four self-adhesive rubber feet are included with the YCV 100,
VYC 100N, and VYC 100P. For tabletop use, attach one foot at
each corner of the bottom side of the unit and place the unit in
the desired location.
UL rack mounting guidelines
The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines
pertain to the safe installation of the YCV 100, VYC 100N, and
VYC 100P in a rack.
1
.
Elevated operating ambient temperature
— If 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 unit in an environment compatible with the
maximum ambient temperature (Tma = +122 °F, +50 °C)
specified by Extron.
2
.
Reduced air flow
— Install the equipment in a rack so that
the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the
equipment is not compromised.
3
.
Mechanical loading
— Mount the equipment in the rack
so that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to
uneven mechanical loading.
4
.
Circuit overloading
— Connect the equipment to the
supply circuit and consider the effect that circuit
overloading might have on overcurrent protection and
supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment
nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this
concern.
5
.
Reliable earthing (grounding)
— Maintain reliable
grounding of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular
attention to supply connections other than direct
connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).
