Installing the Scalar 24 in a Rack

Your Scalar 24 can easily be converted to a rackmount configuration. Follow the steps below to
install your Scalar 24 into a rack.
Special care should be taken when installing a Scalar 24 into a rack. Heed the following guidelines:
For continued safe operation, the recommended maximum internal ambient temperature of
the rack should not exceed 104
While installing a rack mounted unit, do not block or otherwise restrict airflow to the front or
rear vents.
To maintain rack stability, consider the mechanical loading of the rack to ensure a low
center of gravity.
Before installing a unit into a rack, consider the overall loading of the branch circuit
supplying power to the rack.
Since this unit is intended to be attached to an earth ground, ensure that a reliable path to
earth ground is maintained within the rack.
Tools required: #3 Philips screwdriver and #1 Philips screwdriver
Step 1
The Scalar 24 requires a 4U (7 inch) space in a standard 19-inch rack. Ensure that this
amount of space is available in the rack. Measure and mark the holes to simplify the
subsequent steps.
Step 2
Remove the rackmount assembly from packaging.
Step 3
Power down your Scalar 24 and disconnect the AC line cord from the AC source outlet.
Step 4
Disconnect the SCSI cable from the rear panel of your Scalar 24.
Step 5
Using a #1 Philips screwdriver, take off the cosmetic cover of the Scalar 24 by removing
the six screws (3 per side) on the sides of the cover. Slightly bend the sides and lift the
bottom edge of the cover away from the unit. Lift the cover up to remove it.
