following clearance requirements:
At least 219.71 mm (8.65 in) of vertical space
A minimum width of 488 mm (19.2 in) between the left- and right-front rails
in the rack. If possible, consider allowing at least 50.8 mm (2.0 in) on the
right side and rear of the instrument for adequate airflow.
A minimum inside depth of at least 284.23 mm (11.19 in) depth (from rack
mounting ear to back of instrument)
CAUTION.

power cord and mounting hardware. Failure to provide these clearances can
result in overheating and can cause instrument faults or failure.

Rackmount the oscilloscope without rack slides
If you did not order the optional rackmount slides, you may install the oscilloscope
into an equipment rack by following this procedure:
WARNING. To prevent the instrument from tipping or falling on the installers, this
procedure should be performed by two or more people.
1. Select the appropriate screws for your equipment rack from the kit; 10–32,
12–24, M5, or M6. Assemble them with the recessed and flat washers as
shown:
Figure 7: Rackmount hardware
2. Standard equipment racks use one of two mounting hole spacing methods.
Both methods use mounting holes spaced 0.5 inch apart, separated by a
1.25 inch gap. One method (A) places an additional mounting hole in the
e of the 1.25 inch gap (at 0.625, or 5/8, inch); the other method (B) does

Rackmount the oscilloscope using optional rack slides
If you ordered the optional rackmount slides, this procedure assembles and installs
the slide-out tracks in the equipment rack, and then installs the oscilloscope in
the rack.
The slide-out tracks permit the oscilloscope to be extended out of the rack for
rear-panel and connector maintenance without removing the instrument from
the rack.

WARNING. T
operator, install the instrument so that the operator is able to access all of its rear
devices without pushing down on the instrument.
Verify that the rack does not become unstable with the instrument fully extended.
Do not leave the instrument extended when finished accessing the rear panel.
NOTE. The r ack hardware kit contains hardware for mounting the instrument in
several configurations. Not all of the hardware in the kit is needed.
