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 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.
CAUTION: Square studs must be flush with the rack posts to install properly.
Installation and Configuration3
1
Pull on the latch release buttons on the end piece midpoints to open the
rail latches.
2
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.
