Installing in a Rack
This section provides instructions for rack mounting VM-218DTxr. Before installing in a rack,
verify that the environment is within the recommended range:
• Operation temperature – 0 to 40C (32 to 104F).
• Storage temperature – -40 to +70C (-40 to +158F).
• Humidity – 10% to 90%, RHL non-condensing.
When installing on a 19" rack, avoid hazards by taking care that:
• It is located within recommended environmental conditions. Operating ambient
temperature of a closed or multi-unit rack assembly may exceed ambient room
temperature.
• Once rack mounted, there is enough air flow around VM-218DTxr.
• VM-218DTxr is placed upright in the correct horizontal position.
• You do not overload the circuit(s). When connecting VM-218DTxr to the supply
circuit, overloading the circuits may have a detrimental effect on overcurrent
protection and supply wiring. Refer to the appropriate nameplate ratings for
information. For example, for fuse replacement, see the value printed on the
product label.
• VM-218DTxr is earthed (grounded) and connected only to an electricity socket with
grounding. Pay particular attention when electricity is supplied indirectly (for
example, when the power cord is not plugged directly into the wall socket but to an
extension cable or power strip). Use only the supplied power cord.
To rack mount the machine, attach both ear brackets (by removing the
screws from each side of the machine and replacing those screws
through the `ear brackets) or place the machine on a table.
• Detachable rack ears can be removed for desktop use.
• Always mount VM-218DTxr in the rack before connecting any cables or power.
