Installing the KRX-3 

After the server is mounted, follow the steps in this section to install the server unit hardware.  

Step 1: Connecting the Cabling

 

Step 2: Connecting the Power Supply

 

IMPORTANT NOTES:  

The connection of external hardware may require simple hand tools. 

WARNING: Disable the AC power to prevent installer injury and damage to the unit.  

Before beginning the hardware installation, ensure that the following environmental conditions have been met: 

 

The surface on which the KRX-3 is to be placed must be level, clean and dry. 

 

The room or area temperature is climate controlled for human occupancy. 

Step 1: Connecting the Cabling 

This procedure describes the required cabling that must be installed in order to use the server. 

To connect the cabling: 

Perform the following connections (refer to Figure 3-1): 

1.  Insert one side of a standard LAN cable to the Network Port’s RJ-45 connector. Insert the other RJ-45 

connector into the LAN side of the network (switch, wall jack, etc.). Verify that a PC or ViconNet 
workstation is available for software configuration. 

2.  Connect the monitors to the KRX-3 rear panel using mini-D-sub, coaxial BNC-M or S-Video cabling as 

required by monitor type. 

Step 2: Connecting the Power Supply 

To ensure that the KRX-3 is protected during a power surge or failure and that no data is lost, it should be 
connected to an uninterruptible power source (UPS) before use. The power supply must be supplied by the 
customer. 

NOTES: The KRX-3 maybe powered by PoE using the LAN connection or with 24 VAC. Recommended 24 

VAC power supply models are the S24WPS-1 for 120 VAC installations and S24PS-230 for 230 VAC 
installations or latest equivalents. 

           If you are using PoE, skip the following steps. 

 

To connect the UPS: 

1.  Place the KRX-3 near the 24 VAC power supply. Connect the 24 VAC power supply to the UPS power 

receptacle.
