Hardware Installation
Initial Checks
Upon receiving your RX3i equipment, carefully inspect all shipping containers for damage. If any part of the system is
damaged, notify the carrier immediately. The damaged shipping container should be saved as evidence for inspection
by the carrier.
As the consignee, it is your responsibility to register a claim with the carrier for damage incurred during shipment. GE
Intelligent Platforms will fully cooperate with you, however, should such action be necessary.
After unpacking the RX3i equipment, record all serial numbers. Serial numbers are required if you should need to
contact Customer Care during the warranty period. All shipping containers and all packing material should be saved
should it be necessary to transport or ship any part of the system.
Verify that all components of the system have been received and that they agree with your order. If the system received
does not agree with your order, contact Customer Care.
Installation Location
This product is intended for use with the RX3i system. Its components are considered open equipment (having live
electrical parts that may be accessible to users) and must be installed in an ultimate enclosure that is manufactured to
provide safety. As a minimum, the enclosure shall provide a degree of protection against solid objects as small as
