• Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be
such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical
loading.
• Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of
the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the
circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.
Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used
when addressing this concern.
• Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be
maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other
than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips)
NOTE: If rack mounting is not required, rubber feet are provided for tabletop
mounting or stacking. Apply the feet near the corner edges on the underside of the
unit.
To install the ears, use the following procedure.
CAUTION: To prevent equipment damage, use only the rack ears Crestron
provides for this device.
1. Using a #1 or #2 Phillips screwdriver, remove the three screws closest to
the front panel from one side of the unit. Refer to the diagram following
step 3 for a detailed view.
2. Position a rack ear so that its mounting holes align with the holes vacated
by the screws in step 2.
3. Secure the ear to the unit with the three screws from step 2 as shown in the
following diagram.

4. Repeat procedure (steps 1 through 3) to attach the remaining ear to the
opposite side.
Stacking
Four “feet” are provided with the SWE-8 so that if the unit is not rack mounted, the
rubber feet can provide stability when the unit is placed on a flat surface or stacked.
These feet should be attached prior to the hookup procedure.
NOTE: No more than two SWE-8 units should be stacked.
