2.0 Installation Requirements
The MM200 is designed to be installed within any standard 19-inch equipment cabinet or rack,
and requires 2 rack unit (RU) mounting spaces (3.5 inches) vertically and 19 inches of depth.
Including cabling, a minimum of 20 inches of rack depth is required. The rear panel of the MM200
is designed to have power enter from the left and IF cabling enter from the right when viewed from
the rear of the unit. Data and control cabling can enter from either side although they are closer to
the center. The unit can be placed on a table or suitable surface if required.
There are no user-serviceable parts or configuration settings located
inside the MM200 chassis. There is a potential shock hazard internally at
the power supply module. DO NOT open the MM200
chassis under any
circumstances.
Before initially applying power to the unit, it is a good idea to disconnect
the transmit output from the operating station equipment. This is
especially true if the current MM200 configuration settings are unknown,
where incorrect setting could disrupt existing communications traffic.
The MM200 contains a Lithium Battery. DANGER OF EXPLOSION exists if
the battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or
equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used
batteries in accordance with manufacturers instructions
