see
Floor
space:
The
floor
area
at
the
installation
site
must
provide
the
following
conditions:
v
Enough
stability
to
support
the
weight
of
the
fully
configured
EXP100
and
associated
systems
v
Sufficient
space
to
install
the
EXP100

in
a
rack,
keep
in
mind
the
following
considerations:
v
Review
the
documentation
that
comes
with
your
rack
enclosure
for
safety
and
cabling
considerations.
v
Install
the

a
maximum
35°
C
(95°
F)
environment.
v
To
ensure
proper
airflow,
do
not
block
the
air
vents;
15
cm
(6
in.)
of
air
space
is
sufficient.
v
To
ensure
rack
stability,
load
the
rack
starting
at
the
bottom.
v
If
you
install
multiple
components
in
the
rack,
do
not
overload
the
power
outlets.
v
Always
connect
the
expansion
enclosure
to
a
properly
grounded
outlet.

the
following
steps
to
prepare
the
rack
before
you
install
the

1.
Move,
unpack,
and
level
the
rack
