Install the M-200 Appliance in a 19” Equipment Rack
Learn how to install an M-200 appliance in an equipment
rack using the provided four-post rack kit.
The following procedure describes how to install
the M-200 appliance in a four-post equipment rack. The rack kit
includes the hardware required to install the appliance in most
equipment racks. Extra screws and washers are included.
Attach the inner rail sets (two each) to each side
of the appliance by aligning the square holes on each rail with
the rail hooks on the appliance and then sliding the rails toward
the front of the appliance to engage the hooks. Secure the back
inner-rails using two M4 screws for each rail and secure the front
inner-rails using one M4 screw for each rail.
The inner-rails also use pressure-lock clips that
lock the rails to the appliance. Remove the two M4 screws and pull
the metal tab on the clips to remove the rail from the appliance.
Install one outer rack-mount rail assembly (two rails each)
on each side of the equipment rack. Push the rail buttons in on the
ends of the rails, insert the studs in to the square rack holes,
and then release the buttons to secure the rails to the rack. The
following image shows the right side of the rack if you are facing
the front of the rack.
To remove the outer rails from the rack, you must
pull the release clips located at the front and back end of each
rail assembly to release the rails from the rack.
Install the firewall in to the equipment rack by sliding the
inner-rails in to the outer rack-mount rails until the appliance
stops (about halfway in to the rack). Push the inner-rail release
clips on each side of the two rails (push the left clip up and the
right clip down) to release the appliance and then continue to slide
the appliance in to the rack until the front of the appliance is
flush with the front of the rack. The inner-rail release clips are
shown in step 1.
Secure the front of the appliance to the rack by turning
the front thumb screws on each rail clockwise until tight. Secure
the back rail to the rack using one M5 screw (with washer) for each
rail.
