How to

MPI monitor in a

dual rack cabinet

For the PRISM MPI monitor, there are two optional dual rack cabinets (19”, 3RU).

MPI-RACK-MM. Allows you to install one MPI monitor or two MPI monitors side-by-side. Each side of the cabinet front panel has two USB ports and a headphone jack for each MPI monitor.

MPI-RACK-MW. Allows you to install one MPI monitor or one MPI monitor in a side-by-side installation with a Tektronix WFM52x0, WFM7200, WFM8x00 waveform monitor. The left side of the cabinet front panel has two USB ports and a headphone jack for one MPI monitor.

For the PRISM MPX monitor, there is an optional 1RU full-rack kit that can be

used for either portable or rackmount applications.

MPX RACK. Allows you to install one PRISM 1RU full width MPX RACK. The MPX RACK rackmount kit includes the Rackmount Slides and Rails Kit Installation Instructions document (Tektronix part number 071-2746-xx).

The information on the following pages describes how to install the MPI monitor in one of the optional dual rack cabinets.

Dual

has speciﬁc cooling and clearance requirements. Ensure that the cle arance requirements for proper airﬂow are met for both the dual rack cabinet and the instrument. See the PRISM MPI Installation and Safety Instructions for information about the environmental operating requirements for the instrument.

UTION. To prevent risk of ﬁre, adequate airﬂow to instrum ent(s) and rack

adapter must be maintained. Failure to provide adequate airﬂow to instrument(s) could cause an instrument to shut down.

Inadequate airﬂow includes placing instrument(s) and rack adapter in any small, enclosed room that lacks a ventilation system, such as a closet. If the airﬂow is restricted or blocked and the instrument(s) do not shut down, the risk of ﬁre is increased and the instrument(s) could be permanently damaged.
