INSTALLATION
f the unit is to be stored, it is recommended to
refresh the internal battery at least once every 90
days. To do this, plug the system in, position the
Power On/Off Switch to "ON" and allow the unit to
idle for at least 24 hours.
The CT unit is designed for installation in a protected
environment. These units may be installed in a 19"
rack system. Some important points to consider when
positioning a unit for operation:
∗ A properly rated (preferably dedicated) outlet is
accessible for the six foot power cord supplied with
the unit. It is not recommended to modify the
supplied cord in any way nor should an extension
cord of any kind be used.
∗ The cord paths in the system installation should
remain clear of foot traffic or anything else that may
disturb the permanent connection.
∗ The installation site should maintain an ambient air
temperature of less than 104
o
F (40
o
C). When the
environment for the system remains cooler during
operation, there is less stress on the batteries and
the internal electronics.
∗ The air inlets, vents and fan should not be obstructed
or blocked in any way. The more breathing space
the system has, the cooler it operates.
∗ The air should remain free from excessive dust and
chemical fumes.
∗ The front panel is designed to fit in a standard 19"
rack. This panel fills a 5¼-inch slot. Guide Rails or
slides are recommended to support the unit's
mainframe. This system weighs in excess of 70
pounds, front panel mounting is not intended to
support the entire unit. The system has pre-tapped
aluminum slide bars available to accept some
standard slide configurations. Contact the factory for
optional slide kits and accessories if assistance is
required in properly mounting in a rack.
Once a location has been selected and the unit is
installed, it is ready for operation.
Allow at least 8 hours, after the system is first installed,
to fully charge the internal battery to a maximum state.
