This section contains instructions for mounting the Agilent E840xA
mainframe in an EIA cabinet using the Agilent E3664A support rail kit. The
E3664A kit can be used with any of the rack mount adapter options;
however, the E3664A is only compatible with Agilent cabinets. The
following procedures apply to all adapters, with adapter-specific
information noted where necessary.
Note
If you ordered Cable Tray Option 914, refer to
tray before rack mounting the mainframe.
1. Attach the handles to the adapters using the m5x10 flat head screws
(Figure B-1). Handles are included only with the Agilent E840xA
Standard adapters (Option 923).
2. Using the rack mount adapters as templates, position the adapters on
the rack's vertical rails where the mainframe is to be mounted. Align
the adapter holes over the "center" holes of the EIA rack units (Figure
B-2).
Note
If you are using the Agilent E840xA VXIplug&play Compliant adapters
(Option 925), position the adapters such that all three mounting holes are
directly over holes on the rack's vertical rails, and that the adapter flanges
cover nine full EIA rack units with no overlap.
