Congratulations!
Congratulations on your new purchase of Spyke. Please follow the steps

Step 1
Unpack Spyke
Carefully unpack the device and retain materials for later use. If any part
is missing or damaged, contact Net Optics Customer Service. See the
contact information at the bottom of the page.
Please verify that you have the following components:
• Spyke device

Step 2
Rack Mount
The Spyke device is designed for rack mounting in a 19-inch equipment
rack and occupies one rack unit.
1. Install the ears onto the Spyke device.
2. Slide the Spyke device in the rack, and fasten the chassis in place with
screws at the front panel ears.
3. Ground the chassis to the rack by connecting a 14 AWG ground wire
with a #8 ring lug to the ground connection on the rear of the chassis.
Terminate the other end of the ground wire to the rack ground bus bar.
Step 3
Power up Spyke
There are two power connectors at the rear of the unit. Plug one power
cord to one of the power connectors. Plug the other end of the cord to
a power source. For redundancy, plug both power cords to Spyke and
plug the other ends to independent power sources.
In the back of the unit, switch the power ON. If you supply power to only
one power connector, press the red button to silence the alarm.
