14 IDR-8 User Guide
Installing the iDR-8
The iDR-8 and its expanders are supplied ready
for 19” rack mounting. For desk top or shelf
mounting remove the rack ears and fit the 4 press-
in rubber feet provided. Use Torx (star head)
screwdrivers.
Fit the face plate once you have configured the
settings with the front panel menu system and
fitted any labels required to identify the key and
LED functions. The plate is packed separately.
Fit this using the 4 hex screws and the 2mm Allen
driver provided.
Allow adequate space behind the units for
plugging in the connectors. The dimensions are
shown below.
Plug the cables into their correct sockets. We
recommend that you colour code or label the
cables to avoid errors when replugging them in
the future.
Do not obstruct the side ventilation slots.
Ensure adequate air flow around the units.
Do not install the units directly above or
below heat or electromagnetic generating
equipment such as power supplies and
amplifiers.
To avoid damage to the internal
assemblies do not fit screws or drill through
the case metalwork.
Do not remove the cover of the iDR unit.
There are no user serviceable parts inside. All
configuration is carried out using the front
panel menus and iDR System Manager
software running on a PC
