2Hardware Preparation and
Introduction
This chapter includes hardware preparation and installation
directions for the XR900 enclosure. Directions for installing or
replacing the various subassemblies are in the
Removal/Replacement procedures in Chapter 5.
Mounting Options
A Modular VME System can be rack-mounted, mast-mounted (as
in a telecommunications environment) or set up in a floor-standing
pedestal configuration. The system may include multiple chassis
components, which interconnect vertically with a latching
mechanism.
As a member of the Modular VME System, the XR900 is adaptable
to both rack/mast and pedestal installations. For proper airflow
and regulatory compliance, a front bezel is supplied as standard
equipment for the enclosure.
Hardware Preparation
There are a number of items to check or tasks to perform before you
apply power to the enclosure. These items include, but are not
limited to, the items summarized in Table 2-1.
Dangerous voltages, capable of causing death, are
!
present in this equipment. Use extreme caution when
handling, testing, and adjusting.
