Getting Started With Your System

Installation and Configuration

WARNING:

Before performing the following procedure, review the safety

instructions that came with the system.

Unpacking the System

Unpack your system and identify each item.

Installing the Rails and System in a Rack

WARNING:

Whenever you need to lift the system, get others to assist you.

To avoid injury, do not attempt to lift the system by yourself.

WARNING:

The system is not fixed to the rack or mounted on the rails. To avoid

personal injury or damage to the system, you must adequately support the system

rack during installation and removal.

CAUTION:

Before installing systems in a rack, install front and side stabilizers

on stand-alone (single) racks or the front stabilizer on racks joined to other racks.

Failure to install stabilizers accordingly before installing systems in a rack could

cause the rack to tip over, potentially resulting in bodily injury under certain

circumstances. Therefore, always install the stabilizer(s) before installing

components in the rack.

CAUTION:

Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician.

You should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in

your product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service

and support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not

covered by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that came

with the product.

Getting Started With Your System

Secure the rails to the front of the rack using two screws and to the back of

the rack using four screws.

Align the keyhole slot on the chassis rails with the corresponding pin

on either side of the system and slide the chassis rails towards the front

of the system until it locks into place. Secure the chassis rails to the

system using screws.

Getting Started With Your System

Align and insert the ends of the chassis rails into the ends of the rails and

push the system inward until the chassis rails lock into place.

Tighten the thumbscrews to secure the ears of system to the rack.

Getting Started With Your System

monitor's cable connector.

Connecting the Power Cable(s)

Getting Started With Your System

Connect the system’s power cable(s) to the system and, if a monitor is used,
