ystem, which
is a 19" X 5 1/4" slide-in power supply and Mainframe for use in a
standard 19" rack. This rack mount will hold up to nine VFD471
cards. This lets you put nine Video Freeze Frame switchers or any
other 400 series product into three RU spaces.
Remove the equipment from the packing materials. If unit
needs to be mounted in the RMS400 follow these steps.
1.
Please read the instruction book completely before starting.
2.
Select one of the un-used nine positions to be occupied by
the new circuit board module.
3.
Remove the blank label in that position by peeling it off of
the front panel. Peel the label slowly to remove all of the
label and adhesive. Any remaining adhesive may be removed by
rubbing the surface with your thumb. WARNING DO NOT USE
SOLVENTS TO REMOVE THE LABEL ADHESIVE. The solvent could
damage the equipment cards or cause a fire.
4.
Peel the backing off of the new label and apply it to the
front panel of the RMS-400 rack in the position of the new
card. Align the new label with the screw head in the hole in
the lower right hand corner of the label, then align the
center thumbscrew with the clearance hole in the front
panel. This should cause the label to be straight and
vertical. When the label is in place press firmly the secure
the label.
5.
Then remove the thumb-screw retainer from the product card,
it is located at the front of the card and is removed by
rotating the knob counter-clock-wise.
6.
Select any and all product options on the specific card,
(See Instructions for individual product).
7.
Next slide the card into the card guides at the rear of the
RMS-400. Be sure that the notch in the circuit card is
facing forward and down. Push the card all the way to the
front of the rack until it stops. DO NOT APPLY EXCESSIVE
FORCE TO THE CARD.
8.
Insert the thumb-screw that was removed in step 5 while
rotating it in a clock-wise direction. When it begins to
thread into the card, continue until it is finger tight.
CAUTION TIGHT BY HAND ONLY, DO NOT USE TOOLS TO TIGHTEN THE
THUMB-SCREW. OVER TIGHTENING WILL DAMAGE THE CIRCUIT CARD.
