Installation
Guidelines
•
Each host unit can support up to 16 attached sensors including RS2 units.
Each host can support up to 600 feet of aggregate sensor cable length connecting the RS2
•
units, and other sensors, to the host.
RS2 units are ONLY supported by Geist R-Series units with firmware version 3.00 or higher.
•
•
If the RS2 is installed in a cabinet the ambient temperature of the rack should be no greater
than 45°C.
Install the RS2 such that the amount of airflow required for safe operation of equipment is
•
not compromised.
Mount the RS2 so that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical
•
loading.
Follow nameplate ratings when connecting equipment to the branch circuit.
•
consideration the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on over-current
protection and supply wiring.
The RS2 relies on the building installation for protection from over-current conditions. A
•
Listed circuit breaker is required within the building installation. The circuit breaker should
be sized according to the RS2's nameplate ratings and local/national electrical codes.
Reliable earth grounding of rack-mount equipment should be maintained.
•
attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch
circuit. The RS2 must be connected to an earthed socket-outlet.
For pluggable equipment, install the RS2 so that the input plug or appliance coupler may be
•
disconnected for service.
•
Sequential power-up of devices powered by the RS2 is recommended to avoid high inrush
current.
Caution: Disconnect all power cords before servicing.
•
Mounting
The RS2 is made to be mounted to any flat surface using four (4) screws, as shown in Figure 2.
The mounting holes are 1/4" diameter, so screws should be selected to fit and strong enough to
securely hold the RS2 in place. The mounting hole dimensions are shown in Figure 1.
