1-18 Introduction
v1.0, September 2009
• Temperature operating limits are not likely to be exceeded. Install the unit in a clean, air-
conditioned environment. For information about the recommended operating temperatures for
the STM, see Appendix A, “Default Settings and Technical Specifications.”
Using the Rack-Mounting Kit
Use the mounting kit for the STM to install the appliance in a rack. (A mounting kit is provided in
the product package for the STM). The mounting brackets that are supplied with the STM are
usually installed before the unit is shipped out. If the brackets are not yet installed, attach them
using the supplied hardware.
Before mounting the STM in a rack, verify that:
• You have the correct screws (supplied with the installation kit).
• The rack onto which you will mount the STM is suitably located.
