CAUTION: Restricted Access Location

This server is intended for installation only in restricted access locations as defined in Cl. 1.2.7.3 of IEC 60950-1: 2001 where both these conditions apply:

• Access can only be gained by

service persons

or by

users

who have been instructed about the reasons for the restrictions applied to the location and about any precautions that shall be taken.

• Access is through the use of a

tool

or lock and key, or other means of

security, and is controlled by the authority responsible for the location.

Installation and Configuration

WARNING: Before performing the following procedure, review and follow

the safety instructions that came with the system.

Unpacking the System

Unpack your system and identify each item.

Installing the Tooled Rail Solution

WARNING: Whenever you need to lift the system, get others to assist you.

To avoid injury, do not attempt to lift the system by yourself.

WARNING: The system is not fixed to the rack or mounted on the rails.

To avoid personal injury or damage to the system, you must adequately support the system during installation and removal.

WARNING: To avoid a potential electrical shock hazard, a third wire safety

grounding conductor is necessary for the rack installation. The rack equipment must provide sufficient airflow to the system to maintain proper cooling.

Getting Started With Your System 3

Install the screw with the washer into the selected hole of the rail to set the travel stop position.

WARNING: The travel stop position is intended for repositioning your grip

for system removal. It is not intended for service.

If the extension brackets (optional) prevent the installation of rails in the rack, remove the extension bracket screws to remove the extension bracket.

4 Getting Started With Your System

Secure the rails to the front of the rack using two screws and to the back of the rack using four screws.

Slide the system into the rack.

If present, remove the two chassis stabilizer shipping brackets (optional) from the rack.

NOTE: To transport systems already installed in the rack, ensure that

the two chassis stabilizer shipping brackets (optional) are in place.

Getting Started With Your System 5

Tighten the thumbscrews to secure the ears of the system to the front of the rack.

Installing the Tool-Less Rail Solution

WARNING: Whenever you need to lift the system, get others to assist you.

To avoid injury, do not attempt to lift the system by yourself.

WARNING: The system is not fixed to the rack or mounted on the rails.

To avoid personal injury or damage to the system, you must adequately support the system during installation and removal.

WARNING: To avoid a potential electrical shock hazard, a third wire safety

grounding conductor is necessary for the rack installation. The rack equipment must provide sufficient airflow to the system to maintain proper cooling.

CAUTION: When installing rails in a square-hole rack it is important to ensure

that the square peg slides through the square holes.

6 Getting Started With Your System

Align the end pieces of the rails on the vertical rack flanges to seat the pegs in the bottom hole of the first U and the top hole of the second U. Engage the back end of the rail until the latch locks in place.

NOTE: The rails can be used in both square-hole and round-hole racks.

Repeat step 1 to position and seat the front end piece on the vertical flange.

NOTE: To remove the rails, pull on the latch release button on the end piece

midpoint and unseat each rail.

Slide the system into the rack.

Getting Started With Your System 7

If present, remove the chassis stabilizer shipping bracket (optional) from the rack.

NOTE: To transport systems already installed in the rack, ensure that

the chassis stabilizer shipping bracket (optional) is in place.

Tighten the thumbscrews to secure the ears of system to the front of the rack.

8 Getting Started With Your System

Optional – Connecting the Keyboard, Mouse, and Monitor

Connect the keyboard, mouse, and monitor (optional).

The connectors on the back of your system have icons indicating which cable to plug into each connector. Be sure to tighten the screws (if any) on the monitor's cable connector.

Connecting the Power Cable(s)

Connect the system’s power cable(s) to the system and, if a monitor is used, connect the monitor’s power cable to the monitor. Plug the other end of the power cables into a grounded electrical outlet or a separate power source such as an uninterrupted power supply or a power distribution unit.

Getting Started With Your System 9

Turning On the System

Press the power button(s) either on the front or back of the system and the monitor. The power indicators should light.
