To unpack the IL6000, perform the following steps:
1. Remove the IL6000 chassis and function modules from the shipping cartons.
2. Check the configuration of the unit against the items listed on the packing slip. If you find any
discrepancies, report them in accordance with the instruction in
Ventilating the IL6000 Chassis
It is important that your IL6000 operates within the specified temperature range as described in the IL6000
data sheet. A single fan provides ventilation for the IL6000 chassis by drawing air in through the ventilation
slots located on the side of the chassis near the function module slots.
shows how the fan draws air
through the side of the chassis and over the function modules when power is applied. The IL6000 uses a
variable speed fan to provide quiet operation at normal temperatures. The internal temperature is constantly
monitored and the fan speed automatically increases should the temperature increase.

IL6000 Air Flow
To ensure proper ventilation of the chassis and the installed modules, you must adhere to the following
requirements when installing and operating your IL6000:
•
Maintain at least a 2 inch (5 cm) clearance around the sides and rear of the chassis where the fan and
ventilation slots are located. Keep these areas clear of any obstructions that might restrict air flow in
or out of the chassis.
•
Install the module blank trays in any unused module slots.
•
Visually inspect the ventilation fan for proper operation when the power is applied.
