PS5000 Rack Mount Requirement
A PS5000 array must be mounted in a standard, 19” rack. The rail assembly kits
supplied in the array shipping box include installation and mounting instructions.
Supplementary instructions for a four-pole rack are included in the shipping box.
You must adhere to the following array racking requirements:
• Mount the array in a horizontal position. Otherwise, you will void your array
warranty and support contract.
• Attach the rack to the floor for added stability.
• Support the array until it is completely mounted in the rack.
Installing the PS5000 Hardware
After you complete the preliminary tasks described in Before You Begin to Install
a PS5000 on page 2-3, follow these steps:
1. Connect the power cables. Do not turn on power to the array at this time. See
Step 1: Connect the PS5000 to Power on page 2-8.
2. Connect the array to the network. See Step 2: Connect the PS5000 to the
Network on page 2-9.
3. Turn on power to the array. See Step 3: Turn on Power to the PS5000 on
page 2-11.
4. If you plan to use the Remote Setup Wizard to configure the software, skip
this step.
If you plan to use the
setup utility to configure the software, see Step 4: Set
Up a Serial Connection to the PS5000 on page 2-11.
