Section 2
— General Information
Fan
Cooling the Computing Chassis interior is accomplished by a fan mounted
on the rear panel. Fan power is +12 VDC from the DC Power Supply
through the Backplane. Ambient air is drawn in through a filter in the front
and warm interior air is exhausted out the rear of the chassis.
DC Power Supply
The DC Power Supply is mounted on the right-hand side of the Computing
Chassis. It receives 115/230 VAC power from the AC line connector on the
Input Power Filter Housing at the rear of the chassis. The Power Supply
provides the +5 and ±12 VDC voltages required by the Editor. These
outputs are distributed to other components through the Backplane.
Backplane
This is a printed circuit board mounted vertically at the interior rear of the
chassis. The interior side of the Backplane has connectors which interface
power and signals for the Computing Chassis components. For all the
Editors, inputs/outputs for external devices are interfaced to the
Backplane by connectors attached to its exterior side. These connectors
extend through slots on the rear panel. For the VPE-351, the Expansion
Chassis provides additional interfaces for external devices.
Figure 2-2 shows the rear panel of the Computing Chassis. Backplane
connectors provide signal interfaces between the Computing Chassis, the
Keyboard, the Monitor, peripheral devices, and, for the VPE-351, the
Expansion Chassis. Backplane Connectors are:

K5 Keyboard (VPE-351 Only)
The K5 Keyboard, illustrated in Figure 2-6, consists of an expanded
keyboard and a separate Jogger panel. The expanded keyboard has special
function keys which replace multiple keystrokes which would otherwise
be needed with other keyboards. This Keyboard has three connectors on its
rear panel. One is for the cable which connects to the Expansion Chassis
and one is for the cable from the Jogger panel. The third connector is for
power to the Keyboard and, through the Keyboard, to the Jogger panel.
The Jogger panel has a Jog Knob and keys which are duplicates of those on
the Keyboard. It also has a direction (forward/reverse) and speed
indicator. The Jogger panel is normally connected to the Keyboard and,
when so connected, receives power from it. However, the Jogger panel
may be connected to the Jogger connector on the Expansion Chassis and
then receives power from the Editor.

Introduction
The W ork Space
Installing The Editor
In this section you are given step-by-step instructions on how to install
your Editor. We recommend that you read all instructions thoroughly at
least once before doing them. The section includes:
■ Things to consider when selecting a work space
■ Information on cables
■ The physical installation of the Editor
■ A start-up/power on procedure
The following is a synopsis of work space considerations when installing
your Editor. For more complete information, consult the appropriate
Installation Planning Guide. The Computing Chassis for your Editor is
designed such that it may either be mounted in a standard 19" electronic
equipment rack or placed on a level desk or table top. This, along with
room for the Keyboard, are considerations in determining the work space.
Other considerations are:
■ The proximity of electrical outlets. (The power cord for the
Computing Chassis is 6' long.)
■ Signal cables are 16 meters (approximately 52') long.
■ Routing of power cords and signal cables so that they do not
present a hazard to personnel.

Editor Installation
Installing your Editor consists of installing the Computing Chassis and, for
a VPE-351, the Expansion Chassis; placing the Keyboard in the work space;
and then making the power cord and signal cable connections. These are
discussed in turn on the following pages.

Installing The Computing Chassis
In installing the Computing Chassis, the first thing to determine is whether
it is to be mounted in an equipment rack or placed on a console or table top.
Console or Table Top Installation
If the Chassis is to be placed on a console or table top, you may want to
protect that surface by installing the four rubber feet provided as
illustrated in Figure 3-1. To install the rubber feet, refer to Figure 3-1 and
perform the following procedure:
1. Locate the bag containing four grey mounting feet and remove
them from the bag.
2. Carefully turn the Computing Chassis over and place it on a flat
level work area on its top side.
3. One at a time, remove the backing from each foot and firmly press
into place approximately 1" in from each side at the corners on the
bottom plate. (See Figure 3-1.)
