Setting Up the Hardware

This chapter provides instructions for setting up and installing the rack-mount InterServe 80
SL into a standard equipment rack. If you purchased an Intergraph rack, refer to the
Intergraph Rack Installation and Use document delivered with the rack for instructions to
unpack and set up the rack. For a rack not purchased from Intergraph Computer Systems,
refer to the instructions that came with it.
WARNING Follow all installation instructions explicitly to avoid personal injury and equipment
damage.
CAUTION If you are using cables not supplied by Intergraph Computer Systems, you must use shielded
