4. Mount the Aurora LS into the rack.
5. Connect the cables.
Decide on an appropriate location for the Galaxy Aurora LS . It is best if the unit is kept away
from heat or from where high electromagnetic fields that may exist. If you are installing the unit
into a rack, make sure the rack is in the proper location prior to installation. Moving the Galaxy
Aurora LS while it is installed into the rack is not recommended.
The Galaxy Aurora LS , requires 4 rack units of vertical clearance (7 inches), and a depth of
28 inches. It is recommended that you mount it in a rack which is at least 30 inches deep.
Airflow for the unit comes in through right side and the front. Heat exhaust is from the rear of
the unit. It is important that airflow at the front or the rear not be blocked.
The rack slides permit the unit to slide out of the front of the rack. There are latches on the
sides of the slides, and if you are planning on removing the unit from the rack to service or
transport it, sufficient clearance should be available to allow you to activate the latches and
unlatch the slides.
If the rack is on wheels, be sure to use the wheel locks when installing or removing the Galaxy
Aurora LS from the rack. If the rack does not have wheel locks, place something against the
wheels to prevent movement, or if your rack is equipped with leveling jacks, extend the jacks
to make sure the rack stays level during installation. Always make sure the rack is completely
immobile before installing or removing any components. Never extend more than one
component from the rack at the same time.
There is a set of slides included with the Galaxy Aurora LS . The slides are required for rack-
mounting the unit, and the slides must be mounted with the rear extensions installed into the
rack. The weight of the unit is sufficient that if this were not performed, damage would result to
the unit, the slides, or the rack if installed.
When installing the slides, loosely attach the rear end of the slide to the front end, then screw
the front and rear rack portions of the slides into the rack. Finally, tighten the screws between
the two ends. Repeat this process for the other side. Once the slides are installed in the rack,
slide the unit into the slides. Slide extensions are included in case the rack is deeper.
