Half-Rack-Width Instrument
To remove a half-width instrument from a system rack
1 Power off the system. • For details see the system installation
guide.
2 Remove the selected instrument’s power cord
from the power strip in the rack.
3 The instrument is attached to the half-rack width
instrument beside it; remove that instrument’s
power cord from the power strip also.
• The instruments are secured together
by lock links at the front and rear. The
lock links at the rear attach with
screws. The lock links at the front hook
together.
4 Remove the power cord and other cables from
the front and rear of both instruments.
• Note the location of cables for
re-installation.
5 Remove the four corner screws on the front of
the rack panel that secures the instruments in
place.
• The screws are located near the
corners of the face of the instrument.
• Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver.
6 Slide both instruments, as a single unit, out from
the front of the rack and set them on a secure,
flat surface.
7 Detach the lock links that secure the rear of the
instruments together by removing their screws.
• Use a #2 POZIDRIV screwdriver.
• See Figure 339 on page 465.
8 Carefully and at the same time, push one
instrument forward and pull the other back to
unhook the lock links that secure the front of the
instruments to each other.
9 Store the “partner” instrument and lock links
while the selected instrument is out of the rack.
• Only install the instruments as a pair;
individual installation is not secure.
