Rack Mount Safety Precautions
The following precautions should be followed with regards to rack mount
safety:
•
Keep the area around the RMX 1500 clean and free of clutter.
•
Decide on a suitable location for the equipment rack that will hold the
RMX 1500 unit. It should be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is
well ventilated. Avoid areas where heat, electrical noise and
electromagnetic fields are generated. You will also need it placed
near a grounded power outlet.
•
Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully
extended to the floor with the full weight of the rack resting on them.
