5. Attach one end of the power cord to the power receptacle on the unit and the
other end to a properly grounded 115/230 VAC, 50-60 Hz outlet.
6. Turn on power to the system. The system will boot-up the installed operating
system.
7. Install the application software via a floppy drive, CD-ROM, or the network.
Additional aspects to take into account when mounting your 3600 unit:
••••
Consider locations of accessories such as AC power outlets and lighting (interior
illumination and windows) for installation and maintenance convenience
••••
Prevent condensation by installing a thermostat-controlled heater or air
conditioner
••••
To allow for maximum cooling, avoid obstructing the airflow
••••
Place any fans or blowers close to the heat generating devices. If using a fan,
make sure that outside air is not brought into the enclosure unless a fabric or
other reliable filter is used. This filtration prevents conductive particles and other
harmful contaminants from entering the enclosure.
••••
Do not select a location near equipment that generates excessive electromagnetic
interference (EMI) or radio frequency interference (RFI). Examples of these
types of equipment are: high power welding machines; induction heating
equipment; and large motor starters.
••••
Place incoming power line devices (such as isolation or constant voltage
transformers, local power disconnects, and surge suppressers) away from the
system. The proper location of incoming line devices keeps power wire runs as
short as possible and minimizes electrical noise transmitted to the unit.
••••
Make sure the location does not exceed the unit’s shock, vibration, and
temperature specifications
••••
Install the unit in the rack or panel in such a way as to ensure that it does not
cause a hazard from uneven mechanical loading
••••
Incorporate a readily-accessible disconnect device in the fixed wiring on
permanently connected equipment
••••
Avoid circuit overloading of the supply circuit
