To meet NEBS Level 1 specifications when you are installing this unit in a rack or frame, do the following:
1. Before installation, clean all attachment points on the Alpha FXM, rack and mounting brackets and bring
them to a bright finish. Then coat them with an anti-oxidant such as Sanchem Inc.’s No-Ox ID “A-Special
Electrical Grade” or equivalent.
2. Attach the mounting brackets with the thread forming screws and the paint piercing washers provided with
the brackets to insure adequate grounding between the Alpha FXM’s chassis and the rack.

your needs. To rotate either one, unscrew the screws in each corner, remove the panel, rotate it and reinstall the
screws.
