INSTALLATION

Location: 

The unit may be free standing or 19” rack mountable using the pair of rack 

ears supplied. The screws which fix the rack ears to the unit are located at 

the front of each side panel, as shown (   ) in the 

Overview. 

A PH2 

screwdriver will be required to remove and replace the 2 pairs of screws 

when fixing the rack ears in place. Remove four rubber feet.

The location must provide satisfactory ventilation for the equipment. 
An internal fan provides forced ventilation using the air vents at the 

left side (intake) and rear panel (exhaust) of the unit. Both of these vents 

must be unobstructed for satisfactory cooling. If the unit is installed in an 

enclosed environment, sufficient air flow into the enclosure must be 

provided through vents, fans or other means, such that the units exhaust 

air is not recycled to the inlet - causing it to OVERHEAT.
