Installation Recommendations
During any installation, a lack of ventilation may produce conditions that may adversely affect the device’s operation. In these
circumstances, special care must be made to make sure that temperatures within enclosed areas do not exceed the device’s
maximum rated temperature.
NOTE:
While the outside temperature of the device may be at or below its maximum operating temperature, special care must be
taken before and during installation to ensure that the maximum operating temperature is not exceeded within wall or rack
installation spaces.
Rack Mounting the MXA-MP/MPL
The MXA-MP or MXA-MPL may be put in a freestanding location on a desktop or table, but the device may also be installed in a
standard AV rack. Installation in a rack requires the use of an MPA-VRK Rack Mounting Tray (
FG5968-30
), available from
www.amx.com
.
To install an MXA-MP or MXA-MPL in a MPA-VRK Rack Mounting Tray:
1.
Select a position on the Rack Mounting Tray for the installation. The Rack Mounting Tray contains screw holes to allow single
or double device installations (FIG. 7).
2.
Using the installation screws included with the MPA-VRK, install the screws to the bottom of the device through the Rack
Mounting Tray. Use four screws for each device, with one at each corner.
3.
Connect the Rack Mounting Tray to the rack with the provided installation screws.
4.
Connect the device to the network and apply power.
