10. Continue to support the PTX1000 while sliding the rear-mounting blades into the channel of the side-mounting rails
and securing the blades to the rack (see the illustration below). Use eight mounting screws (and cage nuts and washers
if your rack requires them) to attach to the blade to the rack. Tighten the screws.
11. Ensure that the PTX1000 chassis is level by verifying that all the screws on the front of the rack are aligned with the
screws at the back of the rack.
12. (Optional) Attach a grounding cable to earth ground and then attach it to the chassis grounding point.
Connect Power to the PTX1000
The PTX1000 is supplied with four factory-installed power supplies. For instructions on connecting DC power, see the
installation instructions in the PTX1000 documentation.
To connect power to a PTX1000 with AC power supplies:
1. If the AC power source outlet has a power switch, set it to the OFF (0) position.
2. Insert the coupler end of the power cord into the AC power cord inlet on the AC power supply faceplate.
3. Push the power cord retainer onto the power cord.
4. Insert the power cord plug into the power source outlet.
5. If the AC power source outlet has a power switch, set it to the ON (|) position.
6. Verify that the status LED for each power supply is lit green and on steadily.
