Removing the Profile Unit from the Instrument Rack
If you cannot or do not want to install MPEG boards with the Profile chassis
extended on the rack slides, use the following procedure to remove the unit from
the instrument rack:
1. Remove all cables connected to the rear of the Profile unit. If you have not
done so already, label all cables before removing them to make it easier to
reconnect them later.
2. Loosen the front-panel retaining screw (
Ê
in Figure 1).
3. Grasp the handles and pull the chassis out (
Ë
in Figure 1) until the slides
latch. This holds the Profile chassis firmly in position.
WARNING: To avoid personal injury, at least two people must remove the
Profile chassis from the rack—it is too heavy for one person to lift.
4. With a person on each side of the unit, press in both track stop latch buttons
(
Ì
in Figure 1) and carefully slide the Profile chassis free of the tracks (
Í
in
Figure 1).
5. Place the Profile unit on an ESD-protected work surface.
NOTE: Now is probably a good time to clean the front filter of your Profile
unit. With a strong vacuum, you can clean the filter through the front cover.
