Installing the System in a Cabinet

Before installing the system in a cabinet, make sure that:

  • You read and understand all safety precautions in Safety Precautions.

  • You read and understand all of the steps in To install a system in a cabinet, including all information in the linked topics.

  • Your cabinet meets the system requirements, and the site has been properly prepared (see Cabinet Requirements).

  • You make note of the asset ID on top of the system chassis (see Figure 11).

    Notice: Making note of the asset ID now is important. After you install the system, the asset ID label may not be visible in the cabinet, and you need to provide the asset ID during the software installation.

  • You have the components to install:

    • Support rails (2). One is labeled FRONT LEFT, and the other is labeled FRONT RIGHT. The rails can be extended from 26 3/8 in. (670 mm) to 34 ¼ in. (870 mm).

    • Package labeled R0897-E0112-01 that contains eight flat-head alignment screws (silver). Use these screws to align the mounting rails to the cabinet during installation.

    • Package labeled R0897-E0113-01 that contains four Phillips/hex-head screws (black). Use these screws to secure the rail to the rear of the cabinet.

  • You have the required tools: a flat-head screwdriver and a #2 Phillips-head screwdriver.

Caution: To avoid personal injury or damage to the system, two persons are recommended to insert the system in a cabinet.
Précaution: Pour éviter toute blessure corporelle ou tout dommage à l’étagère, deux personnes sont recommandées pour insérer l’étagère dans l’armoire et sur les supports de montage.
