6-4 Rack Mounting Instructions
This section provides information on installing the SC523 chassis into a rack unit
with the rails provided. There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may
mean the assembly procedure will differ slightly. You should also refer to the instal-
lation instructions that came with the rack unit you are using.
Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails
The chassis package includes two rack rail assemblies in the rack mounting kit.
Each assembly consists of two sections: an inner fixed chassis rail that secures
directly to the server chassis and an outer fixed rack rail that secures directly to
the rack itself.
Inner Rails
The inner rails come pre-installed on the chassis. The chassis can be used normally
with or with out a rack. Use the following instructions in the unlikely event you must
change the inner rails.
Replacing the Inner Rails
Power down and unplug the chassis. It is also recommended that you remove
the power plug from the chassis.
On a solid, stable surface, lay the chassis on its side.
The inner rail is held in place by one screw near the rear of the chassis.
Remove this screw.
Remove the inner rail by sliding the rail toward the rear of the chassis.
Place the new rail on the chassis, aligning the chassis hooks with the rails.
Slide the rail toward the front of the chassis.
Secure the rail with one screw.
Repeat these steps for the other inner rail.
