If mounted on a rack
, attach the Gateway to the rack using the mounting screws.
If placed on a desktop
, make sure the Gateway is in its permanent location with
adequate space for airflow maintenance.
If mounted vertically
, use an adequate mounting kit (not included).
3. Plug the other end of the power cord to a power outlet.
4. Turn on the power switch.
5. Connect the Gatewayt to the PeO switch, the Central Unit and a monitor (if applicable).
Depending on the type of Central Unit of your installation, refer to one of the connecting
