Page 16: Removing The Front Panel
Removing the Front Panel Figure 2‐3 Removing the front panel Installing the Device in a 19‐Inch Cabinet Preinstallation Check Check the grounding and stability of the cabinet. Ensure that the cabinet has sufficient weight‐bearing capacity for the device, and no obstacle is affecting the installation inside or around the cabinet. Before installing the device in a standard 19‐inch cabinet, check that: The cabinet is properly grounded and stabilized. The weight‐bearing capacity of the cabinet is sufficient to support the device, and no obstacle inside or around the cabinet will affect the installation. The cabinet door is not a glass door. The cabinet is supported by a bracket instead of rollers. Installation Procedure Planning the installation position in the cabinet Plan the space and position according to the height (2 U) of the device and the number of devices you want to install. If the cabinet is equipped with a tray, use the tray for the installation. If no tray is available, use slide rails (see Figure 2‐5). This procedure takes slide rails as an example. Figure 2‐4 shows the slide rails and an installed device in the cabinet. 10 ... - Page 17 Figure 2‐4 Installed device in the cabinet 11 ...

Page 19: Installing The Device On A Workbench
Mounting the device onto the slide rails CAUTION! Ensure that the device perfectly aligns with the U marks on the mount bars and is in full contact with the tray or the slide rails. A gap between the device and the tray or the slide rails will cause instability of the device and may affect its operation stability. For hard disks, instability may cause damage and increase read/write errors. 1. Place the device onto the slide rails and then push the device slightly into place. 2. Align the screw slots on the device with the screw holes on the cabinet, insert the screws through the holes and then tighten the screws. Make sure the holes on the device bracket are perfectly aligned with the holes on the cabinet. Figure 2‐6 Securing the device to the cabinet using screws Installing the Device on a Workbench If a 19‐inch cabinet is not available, you may directly place the device on a clean workbench. Before installing the device on the workbench, check that: The workbench is firm enough to bear the weight of the device and the cables. The workbench is stabilized and properly grounded. Room of at least 30 cm in the front and at the back, and at least of 10 cm on both sides of the device should be reserved on the workbench for heat dissipation purpose. ... -
Page 20: Installing The Hard Disks
No object is placed on the device. Installing the Hard Disks The slots for hard disks are inside the device, so you need to remove the front panel and the dustproof cover first. Preinstallation Check Carefully read the instructions for the hard disks included in the package. Use an antistatic wrist strap or antistatic gloves throughout this procedure. Installation Procedure Removing the dust filter Figure 2‐7 Removing the dust filter Inserting the hard disk Unpack the hard disk, and then slowly insert it into the hard disk slot. CAUTION! Two hard disks are delivered with the device and should be installed in slots 2 and 3. 14 ... -

Page 23: Connecting The Grounding Cable
Figure 2‐12 RS‐232 cable Connecting the Grounding Cable WARNING! Ensure that the device is properly grounded to prevent personal injury and device damage (due to lightning and interference). Ensure that the grounding resistance does not exceed 5 ohms, and the grounding cable is not longer than 30 meters. For more information, refer to YD5098 specifications. Connect one end of the grounding cable to the grounding terminal of the device, and connect the other end to a reliable grounding point, as shown in Figure 2‐13. Figure 2‐13 Connecting the grounding cable 17 ... - Page 24 Using a grounding bar in the equipment room NOTE! If the cabinet you are using provides a grounding bar, connect the grounding cable of the device to the grounding bar. If a grounding bar is available in the equipment room, connect the other end of the grounding cable to the grounding bolt on the grounding bar and then tighten the secure nut, as shown in Figure 2‐14. Figure 2‐14 Grounding using a grounding bar in the equipment room (1) Grounding terminal (2) AC input (3) Grounding cable (4) Grounding bar in equipment room CAUTION! Do not connect the grounding cable to a fire fighting pipe, heating radiator, or lightning arrester. The grounding cable must be connected to the grounding system of the equipment room. Using a buried grounding conductor If the installation environment provides no grounding bar but a mud ground which can be used to bury a grounding conductor, you may bury a angle steel (or pipe) at least 0.5 m long into the ground and use the buried angle steel (or pipe) for grounding purpose. The grounding cable of the device must be connected and soldered to the steel angle (or pipe), and the joint point should be protected with anti‐corrosion treatment. Figure 2‐15 shows how the grounding cable should be connected. Figure 2‐15 Grounding using a buried grounding conductor (1) Grounding terminal (2) AC input (3) Grounding cable (4) Earth ...
