2. INSTALLATION

Installing the Ceros requires choosing a suitable long term location for the unit.  The Ceros 
has two cooling fans, one located in the front left of the chassis, and one in the center of the 

rear panel.  These fans allow for air to be pulled in from the front and exhausted out the 
back.  Pick a location that is free from dust and debris so that the inside of the chassis does 

not become contaminated over time.

2.a Ceros Installation 

i. Rack Mounting

Locate the two larger rack mount ears, and install the correct side to the Ceros chassis using 
three Philips head screws on each side.  Note that the longer dimensioned rack ears are for 

23” rack mounting, and the shorter are for 19” rack mounting.  

ii. Wall Mounting

Locate the two small mount ears, and install the correct side to the Ceros chassis using 
three Philips head screws on each side.  Mount the other side to a suitable wall location.  

ii. Desktop Location

Locate the four rubber bumper feet, peel off the backing and stick to the chassis bottom.  

iv. AC Power

All AC connections should be plugged in to an un­interruptible power supply (UPS) with 

surge suppression for protection against lighting and up stream electrical damages.

v. Ethernet

This in almost all cases will plug directly in to your network and can be configured in 
software to use DHCP or static IP address as needed.   

DHCP is default.

vi. Monitor and Keyboard

In almost all cases, a keyboard and mouse are unnecessary since you can either use the 

LCD interface or SSH into the system for configuration.  However, both can be connected 
at any time.
