Unpacking
Carefully open the shipping carton and check for any damage to the device or the supplied accessories.
Every Lake product is tested and inspected before leaving the factory and should arrive in perfect condition.
If any damage is discovered, please notify the shipping company immediately. Only the consignee may
initiate a claim with the carrier or their insurers for damage incurred during shipping. Save the carton and
packing materials for the carrier's inspection.
In addition to the Lake LM 26, the shipping carton include the following items:
▸
Lake LM 26 Quick Start and Field Reference Guide
▸
AC mains lead (IEC power cable) with locking connector
▸
AES break-out cable (4-in, 8-out)
▸
Software Installer and Documentation CD-ROM
Please keep the original carton and associated packaging to facilitate shipping of the device should the need
arise.
3.2
Mounting
Airflow for cooling the LM 26 is from side to side (right-side intake to left-side fan). Please ensure there is
sufficient space each side of the unit to allow airflow; the space provided by standard rack-rails should be
sufficient. This device has no top or bottom vents and therefore may be stacked directly on top of each
other.
Sufficient space should be available at the front of the rack to accommodate the handles, and at the rear to
accommodate connectors and cables; allowance must be made for cable or loom bends within a rack.
3.3
Cooling
The Lake LM 26 uses a forced-air cooling system, with airflow from right to left. The dust filter on the air
intake (right-side) should be regularly cleaned, especially after exposure to dusty environments, to ensure
the maximum possible airflow through the unit.
The LM 26 is designed to operate in situations where the ambient temperature is below 55
