Installing the 493.10 Chassis (FTGT)

Console installation The rack-mounted chassis can be installed in any
Model 490.8x console. Install the console with the
493.10 Rack Mounting kit (056-139-502 for
FlexTest GT). The Rack Mounting kit provides the
hardware (L-shaped brackets) to support the
chassis and mounting screws to secure the chassis
to the console rack.
Connecting Electrical Power
Electrical connections must be made by qualified personnel and
conform to local codes and regulations. An electrical service panel to
provide the electrical power feed (line voltage) to the chassis is not
necessary, but may be required by local electrical codes.
Note Local electrical codes supersede any information found here.
Grounding The chassis will not function correctly if it is not
grounded as shown. Be sure your power
source is also properly grounded. The chassis
includes two grounds: a chassis ground and a
signal ground. The two grounding lugs are
connected together with an external shorting
bar when the chassis is manufactured.
• For the console configuration, remove the shorting bar from the
ground lugs and connect the chassis ground to the console rail.
• For a standalone configuration, always connect the shorting wire
to both ground lugs.
