Installation in a rack
This section explains how to attach an optional RK-SWR rack mount accessory to the unit.
Please read before mounting the unit into a rack
This unit is warrantied to operate in an ambient temperature range of 0–40 °C. If you install
this unit along with other devices into an EIA-standard or JIS-standard rack, the tempera-
ture inside the rack may rise due to heat released from the other devices, resulting in poor
performance of the unit. To prevent the temperature inside the unit from rising, mount the
unit in the rack in accordance with the requirements below.
• If you plan to rack-mount the unit along with a device that tends to generate heat,
such as an amplifier (excluding an XMV series), be sure to leave a gap of 1U or
more from such devices. Also, be sure to maintain sufficient ventilation in this space
by installing a ventilation panel or leaving it open.
• Open the rear panel of the rack, place the rack 10cm (about four inches) away from
the walls and ceiling to keep sufficient ventilation. If you cannot open the rear panel
of the rack, install a commercially-available forced ventilation device, such as a fan
kit. If you install a fan kit, closing the rear panel may work better for heat dissipation
purposes. For more information, refer to the owner’s manual for the rack and/or fan
kit.
Caution
If you plan to relocate the rack, be sure to first remove this unit from the rack.
If you move the unit while it is still installed in the rack, vibration or physical shock might
deform or damage the rack mount accessory, causing injury. This might also cause the unit to
malfunction.
[Installation]
This section explains how to attach the unit in the middle block of a rack mount panel. If
you plan to attach the unit in the left or right block, follow the same procedure below.
Notice
If the supplied feet have already been attached to the unit, remove them.
