Chapter 2 Initial Preparation
Merely affixing the Model SSM or optional SSM Expander into an
equipment rack is no guarantee that the product is making a reliable
ground connection. The mounting rails in the equipment rack should
never be depended upon for a ground connection.
The following information is provided as a general guide for
repackaging your Model SSM for shipment. If you have any questions,
contact your local Speck Dealer or Speck Electronics direct. Our phone
number is (760) 723-4281.
If the product is to be shipped to Speck Electronics for service or repair,
attach a tag to the product, identifying the owner and indicating the
service or repair to be accomplished. Include the model number and
serial number of the product. Place the product in the original container
if available. If the original container in not available, a suitable one can
be purchased from Speck Electronics.
If the original container is not used, wrap the product in heavy plastic
before placing in an inner container. Use plenty of packing material
around all sides of the product and protect panel faces with cardboard
strips. Mark shipping container with "Delicate Instrument" or "Fragile",
and insure the shipment for the proper amount.
In most cases, it will be necessary to remove the rack mount
adapters if the unit is returned in its original shipping container. When
remounting the rack mount adapters, make certain you use the original
mounting screws supplied with the Model SSM.
