Installing the rack receiver in a rack
To mount the receiver in a rack, you will need the GA 3 rack mount kit (optional accessory).

Rack mounting poses risks
When installing the device in a closed or multi-rack assembly, please consider that, during operation, the ambient temperature, the mechanical loading and the electrical potentials will be different from those of devices which are not mounted into a rack.
Make sure that the ambient temperature within the rack does not exceed the permissible temperature limit specified in the specifications. See Specifications.
Ensure sufficient ventilation; if necessary, provide additional ventilation.
Make sure that the mechanical loading of the rack is even.
When connecting to the power supply system, observe the information indicated on the type plate. Avoid circuit overloading. If necessary, provide overcurrent protection.
When rack mounting, please note that intrinsically harmless leakage currents of the individual power supply units may accumulate, thereby exceeding the allowable limit value. As a remedy, ground the rack via an additional ground connection.

Mounting a single receiver in a rack
- Unscrew and remove the two recessed head screws (M4x8) on each side of the receiver.
-
Secure both of the the mounting angles to the sides of the receiver using the previously removed recessed head screws.
- Secure the blanking plate to one of the mounting angles using two recessed head screws (M6x10).
-
Attach the AM 2 antenna front mounting kit
(optional accessory) and mount the rod antennas on the blanking plate.
- Slide the receiver with the mounted blanking plate into the 19" rack.
- Secure the mounting angle and the blanking plate to the 19" rack.
- Align the mounted antennas in a V-shape.
Mounting two receivers side by side in a rack
When you mount two receivers side by side, it is only possible to front mount antennas when you use the ASA 214 antenna splitter
in combination with the AM 2 antenna front mounting kit and an additional
GA 3 rack mount kit.
- Place both receivers upside down and side by side on an even surface.
- Secure the jointing plate to the transmitters using the six recessed head screws (M3x6).
-
Secure the mounting angle.
