Installing the SCE 2000 on a Workbench or Tabletop
You can install the SCE 2000 platform on any flat surface as long as the surface is large enough
for the SCE 2000 (see the table in SCE 2000 Dimensions), and allows for adequate air
flow/ventilation around the sides of the SCE 2000, as described in the Installation Precautions
(on page 4-5)). When installing the SCE 2000 on a workbench or tabletop or in a rack, ensure that
the surface is clean and in a safe location.
Figure 4-3: Installing the System on a Flat Surface
To install a SCE 2000 platform on a workbench or tabletop, complete the following steps:
Step 1 Remove any debris and dust from the tabletop or workbench, as well as the surrounding
area. Also make sure your path between the SCE 2000 platform and its new location is
unobstructed.
Step 2 Place the SCE 2000 platform on the tabletop or workbench.
Step 3 View the bottom panel by lifting the SCE 2000, placing your hands around the SCE
2000 sides and lifting the SCE 2000 from underneath. To prevent injury, avoid sudden
twists or moves.
There are four marked locations, indicating where to affix the rubber feet (see figure above).
Step 4
Attach the rubber feet by removing the adhesive strips and affix the rubber feet onto the
marked locations (on the bottom panel).
Step 5 Replace the SCE 2000 platform firmly on the tabletop or workbench.
Remember to check for proper ventilation. Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) on each side for proper ventilation
and 5 inches (12.7 cm) at the back for ventilation and power cord clearance.
This completes the general workbench or tabletop installation.
Proceed to section, Attaching a Chassis Ground Connection (on page 4-13) to continue the installation.
