Installation and Configuration

WARNING: Before performing the following procedure, review the safety

instructions that came with the system.

Unpacking the System

Unpack your system and identify each item.

Installing the Tooled Rail Solution

WARNING: Whenever you need to lift the system, get others to assist you.

To avoid injury, do not attempt to lift the system by yourself.

WARNING: The system is not fixed to the rack or mounted on the rails. To avoid

personal injury or damage to the system, you must adequately support the system

rack during installation and removal.

CAUTION: Before installing systems in a rack, install front and side stabilizers

on stand-alone (single) racks or the front stabilizer on racks joined to other racks.

Failure to install stabilizers accordingly before installing systems in a rack could

cause the rack to tip over, potentially resulting in bodily injury under certain

circumstances. Therefore, always install the stabilizer(s) before installing

components in the rack.

CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician.

You should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your

product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and

support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not

covered by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that came

with the product.

Getting Started With Your System 3

3

Slide the system into the rack and tighten the thumbscrews to secure the

ears of system to the front of the rack.

Installing the Tool-less Rail Solution

WARNING: Whenever you need to lift the system, get others to assist you.

To avoid injury, do not attempt to lift the system by yourself.

WARNING: The system is not fixed to the rack or mounted on the rails. To avoid

personal injury or damage to the system, you must adequately support the system

rack during installation and removal.

CAUTION: Before installing systems in a rack, install front and side stabilizers

on stand-alone (single) racks or the front stabilizer on racks joined to other racks.

Failure to install stabilizers accordingly before installing systems in a rack

could cause the rack to tip over, potentially resulting in bodily injury under certain

circumstances. Therefore, always install the stabilizer(s) before installing

components in the rack.

CAUTION: When installing rails in a square-hole rack it is important to ensure

that the square peg slides through the square holes.

Getting Started With Your System 5

1

Align the end pieces of the rails on the vertical rack flanges to seat the

pegs in the bottom hole of the first U and the top hole of the second U,

and engage the back end of the rail until the latch locks in place.

NOTE: The rails can be used in both square- and round-hole racks.

2

Repeat these steps to position and seat the front end piece on

the vertical flange.

3

To remove the rails, pull on the latch release button on the end piece

midpoint and unseat each rail.

6 Getting Started With Your System

4

Align the four keyhole slots on the chassis rails with the corresponding pins

on the system and slide the chassis rails towards the back of the system

until it locks into place.

5

Align and insert the ends of the chassis rails into the ends of the rails and

push the system inward until the chassis rails lock into place.

Getting Started With Your System 7

6

Push or pull the blue tab located near the front of the system and slide the

system into the rack. Tighten the thumbscrews to secure the ears of system

to the front of the rack.

Optional – Connecting the Keyboard, Mouse, and Monitor

Connect the keyboard, mouse, and monitor (optional).

The connectors on the back of your system have icons indicating which cable

to plug into each connector. Be sure to tighten the screws (if any) on the

monitor's cable connector.

8 Getting Started With Your System

Connecting the Power Cable(s)

Connect the system’s power cable(s) to the system and, if a monitor is used,

connect the monitor’s power cable to the monitor. Plug the other end of the

power cables into a grounded electrical outlet or a separate power source such

as an uninterrupted power supply (UPS) or a power distribution unit (PDU).

Securing the Power Cable(s)

Release the latch on the retainer unit and pull the clamping ring towards

the end of the strip. Open the clamping ring and insert the power cable.

Close and push back the clamping ring until it is as close as possible to

the system. Check to ensure that the power cable is secured to the system.

Getting Started With Your System 9

Turning On the System

Press the power button on the system and the monitor. The power indicators

should light.

Complete the Operating System Setup

To install an operating system, see the installation and configuration
