Setting Up the Encoder
Always read the instructions carefully and keep this User’s Guide for future reference.
Please choose a suitable location for operating the encoder(s). By doing so you will
preserve long lifesaving and stability of the unit(s).
Set up the encoder on a reliable and flat surface when using the single Makito chassis, or
mount in a rack, when using the 1U (MB6) or 4U (MB21) chassis.
CAUTION
The MB21 chassis must either be installed on a securely fastened rack shelf,
or fastened directly to the rack using support brackets. For instructions on how to properly
secure or support the MB21, refer to the MB21 Important Notice (provided in the package
and available through Haivision’s Download Center).

Please pay particular attention to the following points in order to help protect yourself and
the encoder:
