Instruction Manual – Enova DGX 8/16/32 Digital Media Switchers
Installation Procedure
A flow chart showing the installation sequence is in FIG. 13. The procedure on the following page
provides general steps with references to detailed information found in later sections of the manual.
Caution: To prevent overheating and airflow restriction, avoid placing high heat producing
equipment directly above or below the enclosure. The system requires a minimum of one empty rack
unit above and below (three empty rack units are recommended). Verify that the openings on the top
and sides of the enclosure are not blocked and do not have restricted air flow.
Note: If desired, remove rubber feet from bottom of enclosure before rack installation.
To install and setup an Enova DGX Switcher:
Important: Installation of the Enova DGX 32 requires a minimum of two people for Step 2; we
recommend using three people.
1. Select a position in the rack for the enclosure that is accessible and does not restrict airflow
(see
Caution above).
2. Position the enclosure in the rack. Screw in the rack ear screws on each side.
