Be sure to include the washers around the screws when attaching your board to the rack mount (see
Figure 5-2).
Notice that jumper W2 can connect the digital ground for the SC-2070 and SC-2071 boards to the
metal standoffs attached to the board. Rack mounting does not automatically ground the board to the
metal chassis unless jumper W2 is set.
If two SC-207X Series boards connected to different DAQ devices need to be stacked, double-height
mounting within one rack-mount chassis is possible. Because only one
SC-207X Series board can be used with each DAQ device, this situation occurs only if two or more
DAQ devices are being used. You need a hardware kit for double-height mounting (see Optional
Equipment in Chapter 1) consisting of two brackets that are installed in the rack mount. A second row
of boards can be mounted on these brackets in the same way the first row is mounted. Figure 5-3
illustrates double-height mounting.
