4 Mount the iTX Playout Appliance chassis into the rack (Figure 2-4).
a Align the inner rails on the chassis with the front of the outer rails on the rack.
b Slide the inner rails into the outer rails, keeping the pressure even on both sides (it
may be necessary to depress the locking tabs when inserting). When the server has
been pushed completely into the rack, you should hear the locking tabs click into
the locked position.
The chassis may not slide into the rack smoothly or easily when installed for the
first time. Adjustments to the slide assemblies might be necessary to achieve a
smooth insertion.
c (Optional) Insert and tighten the thumbscrews that hold the front of the chassis to
the rack.
WARNING
Due to the heavy weight of the iTX Playout Appliance, ensure that the rack is
securely anchored onto a unmovable surface or structure before installing
the chassis into the rack.
