How to Install the Module in a Rack
The following procedure describes how to install the module in a 19" rack.
Note that, although each module is shipped with its own mounting panel, it is not necessary to install
each module in a separate mounting panel. Up to three modules may be installed in one mounting panel.
Step 1
Using the screws attached to the module, screw it into an empty position in the mounting panel.
Step 2
Secure the module panel to the two front posts of the rack above the SCE 2000 platform. Leave at least
1.5 cm vertical clearance between the SCE 2000 platform and the module panel to provide space for the
cables from the front panel of the module to the rear of the SCE 2000 platform.
