Expansion Cabinet installation
The Expansion Cabinets provide for the expansion of each base cabinet
with two additional port cards. Each houses up to two port cards that
are connected via ribbon cables through the opening in the back of the
expansion cabinet to the base cabinet.
To install an Expansion Cabinet:
Wear a grounding strap and avoid unnecessary movement while
1.
handling the circuit boards.
Unplug the power to IVX.
2.
Remove the Base Cabinet lid by pressing the release tab at the top of
3.
the Cabinet and rock back the lid from the bottom of the Cabinet.
Install the Expansion Cabinet on the front of the Base Cabinet in
4.
place of the Base Cabinet's lid.
Lock the Expansion Cabinet to the Base Cabinet by snapping the top
5.
in place and reinstalling the retaining screw.
Connect the grounding strap from the Expansion Cabinet's
6.
grounding lug (located on the bottom of the cabinet) to the Base
Cabinet's grounding lug. Follow the grounding procedures as
described earlier for grounding the Base Cabinet.
Through the large opening in the back of the Expansion Cabinet,

connect the ribbon cable(s) from the port card(s) to the card
directly below.
Re-install the original lid from the Base Cabinet on the face of the
8.
Expansion Cabinet.
Base Cabinet II installation
To expand the system beyond three Port Cards, Base Cabinet must be
added. Mount Base Cabinet II directly below Base Cabinet I allow about
two inches between them.
Connect the ribbon cable from the back of Base Cabinet II to the
1.
connector located on the bottom of Base Cabinet I.
Connect the ground of all units to the system ground.
2.
Switch the wall mount transformers so the larger (5-amp) trans-
3.
former is supplying power to Base Cabinet I and the original
(3-amp) transformer is now supplying power to Base Cabinet II.
Connect both power transformers to the standard power strip and
4.
then connect to the UPS.
Note: Always apply power to both Cabinets simultaneously by using the
power strip's switch.
