INSTALLING THE SLM
Installation includes setting the SLM up in a rack and making serial console port (for initial setup only), network,and power connections.
TO INSTALL THE SLM:
1. Mount the unit in a 19-inch rack.
Warning: Be careful not to block the air vents on the front and back of the unit. If you mount the SLM in an enclosed rack, we recommend that the rack have ventilation to provide adequate airflow through the unit.
2. For initial setup, connect the null-modem serial cable provided to the SLM. The SLM console port (RS-232C) defaults to 9600 bps, no parity, 8-bits,1 stop bit (9600-N-8-1), no flow control and supports VT100 emulation.
3. Connect the network port using a standard RJ45-terminated Category 5 cable. The SLM has two network ports, both supporting 10/100/1000 Base-T.
4. Connect the power cord and apply power.The SLM has a universal auto­switching AC power supply.The power supply accepts AC input voltage between 100 and 240 VAC with a frequency of 50 or 60 Hz. A rear-mounted IEC-type AC power connector provides universal AC power input (North American cord provided).
5. Wait approximately a minute and a half for the boot process to complete.
