8 RLC-1080 Power Conditioner
Installation
Placement
Caution: The RLC-1080 weighs approxi-
mately 60 pounds. Two-people should work
together when the unit is being moved. Lift the
RLC-1080 carefully by firmly grasping both
sides of unit in the middle. Failure to use
caution and proper procedures when
lifting or moving the unit may result
in personal injury and/or equipment
damage.
Place unit on a solid, flat surface that is capable
of supporting at least 60 lbs.
Note: Avoid placing other components directly
on top of or behind the unit. Leave at least one
inch of space on all sides to allow for proper
air ventilation. Do not block the fan.
Rack Mounting
The RLC-1080 can be mounted in a standard 19”
rack. Rack-mounting hardware is provided.
1. Install the rack-mount rails. (See the installa-
tion sheet located in the box containing the
rack-mount rails.)
2. Install the rail cleats. (See the installation sheet
located with the cleats in the box marked
“Accessories.”)
3. Install rack-mount ears. (OPTIONAL — See
the installation sheet located with the cleats
in the box marked “Accessories.”) Note:
Rack-mount ears are not required. Their only
function is to fasten the unit to the front of the
rack and prevent front-to-rear movement.
Caution: Rack-mount ears should NEVER
be used alone to support the unit. Rack-mount
rails must always be used to support the unit’s
weight when rack-mounting.
4. Slide the unit into the rack so that the cleats
mounted on the side of the unit fit within
the track of the rack-mount rails. If the ears
were mounted, screw the mounted ears into
the rack to lock unit into position. (See the
installation sheet located in the box marked,
“Accessories.”)
Note: Avoid placing other components directly
on top of or behind the unit. Leave at least one
inch of space on all sides to allow for proper
air ventilation. Do not block the fan.
Connecting the Battery
The RLC-1080 is shipped with front bezel of the
unit unattached and with the internal battery
pack disconnected.
Connect the internal battery pack and attach
the front bezel as follows:
1. Remove the battery retaining bar.
2. Push the Battery Wire Connector into the
hole located at the left of the Battery Pack.
Check to be sure that the connector is securely
connected by gently pulling on the wire to
see if it is attached to the connector.
3. Install the battery retaining bar.
4. Install the front Bezel by aligning the four pins
located on the back-side of the Bezel to the
holes at the left and right sides of the unit.
Gently push the front Bezel onto the unit.

able to the device (Tuner or Auxiliary component)
that is connected to the rear-panel outlet marked
Delayed 1.
