Kaleidescape Premiere Line Installation Guide
Physical Installation
Installing System Components
The Premiere line installation can be as simple as plug-and-play. Or apply
optional settings such as local time zone and parental controls, and the
system is ready to deliver movies and music. Disk cartridges can be added
to expand server capacity as needed.
Set up the Premiere line server before other system components. When
installing a system with multiple servers, set up all the servers before setting
up other components.
Rack Mounting Components
Premiere Line Servers
Use the following procedures to rack mount a Kaleidescape Premiere line
server.
1. Verify that the rack is strong enough to bear the combined weight of the
components in the Premiere line.
2. Position the server in the rack.
3. Attach the server to the rack by fastening rack ears with the four screws
provided. A Phillips #2 screwdriver is required.
4. Check that disk cartridges are firmly seated.
A 3U Server weighs 46 lbs (20.9 kg) with eight disk
cartridges installed, and 59 lbs (26.9 kg) with fourteen disk
cartridges installed. Use two people to lift and mount
a loaded 3U Server.
A 1U+ Movie Server weighs 24 lbs (10.9 kg) with four disk
cartridges installed. Always use proper lifting techniques.
Disk cartridges are sensitive and susceptible to damage
from shock. Use care when handling. Do not bump or drop.
Disk cartridges are susceptible to electrostatic discharge.
Be careful not to touch the exposed connector at the back of
the disk cartridge. Static electricity can damage the
electronics inside the disk cartridge. Always store and ship
disk cartridges in an anti-static bag.
