procedure

To install accessories, perform the following steps.

1 Make sure that the Silcon Triple Chassis is pow-

ered off.

2 Install the SmartSlot accessories into the housings

on the rear of the chassis. See the instructions sup-
plied with the accessories and “Priority of APC
accessories: Table 2” on page 16.

3 If daisy-chaining with other APC external acces-

sories: Connect the UPS cable (supplied with the
accessory) to the Monitoring port of the Silcon
Triple Chassis and to the “To UPS” port of the
other accessory (Share-UPS, MasterSwitch, etc.).
See “Daisy-chaining the chassis with other APC
accessories” on page 15.

4 Power the Silcon Triple Chassis and all accesso-

ries. See Step 4 of “Connect the 25-pin end of the
Silcon UPS cable to a DB-25 serial port of the Sil-
con UPS. See “Connecting the chassis to the UPS:
Figure 7” on page 11.” on page 10.

Note: If your configuration requires additional

power (see “Powering accessories” on
page 18), connect a 24V AC/DC power
adapter, available from APC(part number
AP9505 or AP9505i) for all models of
Triple Chassis.
