Installing Your DECsystem 5100
This chapter describes how to install your DECsystem 5100. It also describes
how to connect the following:
• SCSI terminator
• Connector covers
• Thin Wire Ethernet T-connector and terminators
• Standard Ethernet loopback connector
•
Console terminal
• System power cord
You must connect each of these items to successfully complete, and examine

Caution
Do not block the air vents on either side of the system unit. Blocking these air
vents can cause the system to overheat.
Make sure that you have positioned the system unit correctly before you
connect anything to it. Use the following guidelines:
• Place the system on a flat surface.
• Leave space at the back of the system unit to allow you to connect the
cables.
• Make sure that the system unit's on/off switch is set to the off
(0)
position.
Figure 2-1 shows the location of the on/off switch.
