Powering Up Your 1001R14 Rack
Note The power supplies that come with your 1001R14 rack system
are equipped with a power entry connector on the rear card. The
power supplies are Hot-Swappable, so you are not required to
remove the cards from the rack while applying power to the sys-
tem.
When a power cable is connected between the unit, and an appropriate
power source, a green LED on the front panel will glow to indicate that
the unit is working properly. Since the Model 1001R14 is a "hot swappa-
ble" rack, it is not necessary for any cards to be installed before applying
power. The power may be removed at any time without harming the
installed cards.
Note Please refer to the Model 1001RP14 Series User Manual AC &
DC Rack Mount Power Supplies for fuse and power card
replacement information.
4.2 INSTALLING MODEL 3088RC SERIES INTO THE CHASSIS
The Model 3088RC Series is comprised of a front card and a rear card.
The two cards meet inside the rack chassis and plug into each other by
way of mating 50 pin card edge connectors. Use the following steps as a
guideline for installing each Model 3088RC Series into the rack chassis:
1. Slide the rear card into the back of the chassis along the metal rails
provided.
2. Secure the rear card using the metal screws provided.
3. Slide the front card into the front of the chassis. It should meet the
rear card when it’s almost all the way into the chassis.
4. Push the front card gently into the card-edge receptacle of the rear
card. It should “click” into place.
5. Secure the front card using the thumb screws.
