INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
CAUTION: Do Not Apply power to equipment until instructed to do so.
Main CPU Bay Installation
Before discarding the shipping cartons, verify that
the various pieces of equipment have no evidence of
carrier damage.
Remove the front panel of the main CPU bay
(TC8x01) and the front panels of any supplied
expansion bay (TC8802) by loosening the 4 corner
fasteners.
Install power supply (TC8x05) in far right position of
the TC8x01 main CPU bay insuring proper alignment
and seating of the module into the rear mating
connector. Verify power supply ON/OFF switch is in
the OFF position. Repeat procedure for any supplied
TC8802 monitor expansion bay.
Install 4 supplied screws and star washers on the
rear panel of the bay(s) surrounding the power supply
line cord. This fastens the power supply securely in
place.
CAUTION:
IF THE ALLEGIANT CARD CAGE IS TO
BE TRANSPORTED, THE MAIN POWER SUPPLY
SHOULD BE REMOVED TO PREVENT POSSIBLE
DAMAGE TO THE BAY’S INTERNAL PARTS.
If the bay(s) are to be installed into a standard 19-
inch EIA rack, remove the 4 rubber bumper foot pads
found on the bottom of the bay before trying to install
it. Four holes are provided for mounting the bay(s) in
the rack. If any TC8802 expansion bays is supplied,
it should be located as close as possible to the
TC8801 main CPU bay to facilitate cable
interconnections.
The TC8601, TC8801, and TC8802 bays should be
installed such that there is at least 9 cm (3.5
inches) of clearance above and below the bay.
This is necessary to allow for proper cooling of the
system. Failure to provide proper clearance may
cause the equipment to exceed its recommended
operating temperature range.
NOTE:
A TC8802 BAY SHOULD BE LOCATED
CLOSE ENOUGH TO THE TC8801 SO THAT THE
SUPPLIED 2 METER (6 FOOT) DATA
INTERCONNECT CABLE (TO BE ATTACHED
LATER) CAN BE USED.
Video Input Modules
For TC8600 and TC8800 systems, termination
switches on the Video Input Modules (VIM) must be
set to the correct position prior to installation. Read
the termination instructions (section Camera and
Monitor Connections, subsection Termination) prior
to actually installing the Video Input Modules on
these systems.
The appropriate number of Video Input Modules
(TC8x21 or TC8521VIM) should be installed in the
TC8x01 main bay starting with the left most slot. If
the TC8802 Monitor Expansion Bay is being used, it
should receive the same number of Video Input
Modules as the main bay. If less than full capacity is
being used, the modules should be inserted in a left-
to-right manner so that the lower camera numbers
are used up first.
Typical Video Input Module Insertion
To insure full crosspoint capability, it is important that
if the TC8802 is being used, both the TC8801 Main
Bay and TC8802 Monitor Expansion Bay must be
loaded up with the same number of modules (each
bay receives half of the modules). The Video Input
Modules are identical and are interchangeable within
the designated VIM slots without having to make any
changes to the module.
