3.9 Rack-mount procedure

General
The chassis of the Event Master E2 Lite video processor is designed to be rack mounted. The device is
supplied with front rackmount hardware.
Please note the following important points:
• The E2 Lite is 4RU in height.
• The maximum ambient operating temperature is 40° C.
• Leave sufficient front and rear space to ensure that airflow through the unit is not restricted.
• When installing equipment into a rack, distribute the units evenly to prevent hazardous conditions that may
be created by uneven weight distribution.
• Connect the unit only to a properly rated supply circuit.
• Reliable grounding (earthing) of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.
• Rack mount the unit from the front rack ears using four rack screws (not supplied). Threads may be metric
or otherwise, depending upon the rack type.
CAUTION: At a minimum, an E2 Lite chassis weighs 31 kg (68 lbs). To avoid injury, it is
recommended that two people rack mount these chassis.
How to install E2 Lite in a rack
Use the following steps to rack mount the E2 Lite:
1. The E2 Lite is shipped with side rails included in the shipping case and not installed onto the chassis. These
side rails, when they are properly installed and adjusted, assist with the distribution of chassis (and cable)
weight within your rack. Use the following steps to properly adjust the side rails:
1. Measure and install the two supplied mounting brackets on your rear rack rails.

2. Measure the distance between the front and rear rack rails. Remove the four mounting screws that secure
each side rail to the E2 Lite, and then adjust the spacing of each side rail as necessary.
