3.1 Unpacking
Carefully open the shipping carton and check for any damage to the device or the supplied accessories.
Every Lab.gruppen product is tested and inspected before leaving the factory and should arrive in perfect
condition. If any damage is discovered, please notify the shipping company immediately. Only the consignee
may initiate a claim with the carrier or their insurers for damage incurred during shipping. Save the carton
and packing materials for the carrier’s inspection.
In addition to the PLM, the shipping carton include the following items:
▸ PLM Series Quick Start & Field Reference Guide
▸ AC mains lead (power cable) with Neutrik
®
powerCON connector
▸ Rear brackets for additional rack support (pair) along with associated mounting hardware
▸ Software Installer and Documentation CD-ROM
Please keep the original carton and associated packaging to facilitate shipping of the device should the need
arise.
3.2 Mounting
Airow for cooling the PLM is from front panel (intake) to rear panel (exit). Please ensure that no object,
such as rack doors or lids are placed at the front or rear of the rack to ensure that airow is maximized. This
device has no top or bottom vents and therefore may be stacked directly on top of each other.
Sufcient space should be available at the front of the rack to accommodate the handles, and at the rear to
accommodate connectors and cables; allowance must be made for cable or loom bends within a rack.
3.2.1 Rear Mounting
Two rear support brackets along with associated mounting hardware are included with the PLM, as shown
in Figure 3-1; it is recommended that these are used wherever possible. Fit the brackets to the vertical rails
at the rear of the rack. Figure 3-2 and Figure 3-3 show the tting options for xed and removable installation.
The support brackets are reversible and may be tted to point either to the front or rear of the rack; the
orientation used depends on the rack depth and position of the rear rack rails.
Two mounting methods are possible; note that the method shown in Figure 3-2 additionally provides extra
security against unauthorized removal. For situations where rapid removal and replacement is required, the
method shown in Figure 3-3 should be used.
