Installation and Configuration

WARNING: Before performing the following procedure, review and follow

the safety instructions that came with the system.

Installing the Tool-less Rail Solution

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 during installation and removal.

WARNING: To avoid a potential electrical shock hazard, a third wire

safety grounding conductor is necessary for the rack installation.

The rack equipment must provide sufficient airflow to the system to

maintain proper cooling.

CAUTION: When installing rails in a square-hole rack it is important

to ensure that the square peg slides through the square holes.

Getting Started With Your System

1Push the latch release buttons on the midpoints of the end piece to open the

rail latches (see Figure 1).

2Align the end pieces of the rails on the vertical rack flanges to seat the pegs

in the bottom hole of the first U and the top hole of the second U.

NOTE: The rails can be used in both square-hole and round-hole

racks (see Figure 1).

Figure 1. Pushing the Latch Release Buttons

NOTE: To remove the rails, push the latch release button on the

midpoints of the end piece and unseat each rail.

3Engage the end of the rails and release the latch release button to have the

latches locked in place.

4On each vertical rack flange on the back, put two screw bases into the two

square holes right above the rail (see Figure 2).

5Install the chassis stabilizer shipping brackets (optional) on the back

rack flanges.

6Install and tighten the screws.

NOTE: To transport systems already installed in the rack, ensure

that the two chassis stabilizer shipping brackets (optional) are

in place.
