Scalar 218FC Rack-Mount Installation
99
❐
Mount the outer rails to the Scalar 218FC by placing each rail over the three studs on each side of
the unit. Loosely secure the outer rails to the studs using three nylock nuts.
Do not
tighten the nuts
completely. The following illustration shows the location of the rail-mounting studs.
❐
Adjust the position of the outer rails until the distance between the outside surface of the mounting
flanges is equal to the measurement you recorded when you measured the distance between the
rack uprights.
❐
Once the rail length is adjusted, tighten the nylock nuts securely.
The next step in the installation process is to remove the Scalar from the rails so that you may install
them in your rack.
For maximum protection, your rack-mount Scalar 218FC was shipped from the factory with the front
panel locked in the closed (operating) position. The slam lock on the front panel serves two purposes;
when engaged with the key, the Scalar 218FC cannot be pulled forward on its slides, preventing
unauthorized access to the data cartridge storage bay; when disengaged, the lock works as a latch,
holding the Scalar 218FC in the operating position.
