Setup and Installation

This section describes how to set up and install the N525 and its interface modules.

Before setting up the N525, make sure a 9 pin RS-232 cable is available (required to
connect the N525’s Management Port to a VT100 type terminal or PC for setup and
configuration).

Caution: Connect the serial cable to the RS-232 management port on the N525 after

the PC has booted up. Booting up the PC with the serial cable connected to
the N525 might cause the PC to load an incorrect driver, resulting in an
erratic cursor on the PC.

Installing the N525

The N525 is tested and inspected before shipment from the factory. If there is obvious
damage to the shipping container, contact the carrier immediately.

Caution: Follow electrostatic discharge (ESD) safety precautions when handling

Canoga Perkins products, as with all electronic devices with static
sensitive components.

1. Unpack the N525. Keep the shipping container until the unit is installed and fully

operational. In the unlikely event that the unit is defective, contact Canoga Perkins
Customer Service for a Return Authorization Number (RMA) and instructions for return
shipment. Additional Warranty and Product Return information is in Appendix A.

2. The N525 can be rack mounted, wall mounted, or placed on a shelf or any other flat

surface.

a. Rack Mounting: To rack mount the N525, attach Rack Mount Kit 1802-2008 for

19” racks, or Rack Mount Kit 1802-2009 for 23” racks. The Rack Mount Kits
includes mounting brackets and screws to attach the brackets to the N525. The
brackets attach to the three threaded holes on the side of the N525 toward the
front. Be sure to place the Lock Washer between the Screw Head and Bracket as
shown figure 5.
