• Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the
amount of airflow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
• Mechanical Loading - Mounting the equipment in the rack should be such that a
hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
• Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equip-
ment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on
overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment
nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
• Reliable Earthing- Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be main-
tained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct
connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).
Xgig1000 System Overview
The Xgig1000 chassis is a hardware platform that includes one fixed blade – it is part of a
larger system. Performing application tasks requires PC hardware, installation of software
at the PC, and making proper connections. There is a client-server relationship between
the Xgig1000 chassis (server) and the Xgig application software (client) used to perform
tasks. The software on the Xgig server interacts with the internal blade hardware and
services the requests made from the Xgig client software.

There are two methods of connecting and working with the Xgig1000 system: standalone
and network. A standalone environment implies a “work bench” installation where the
Xgig1000 chassis is connected to a single PC (via Ethernet or a USB cable) for manage-
ment and interface with Xgig software applications. A network environment implies an
installation where the Xgig1000 chassis is connected to an Ethernet network. The
Xgig1000 chassis can be reached on the network from many different clients running Xgig
