Introduction
Your Flat Panel Monitor Keyboard Drawer is an integrated
monitor keyboard assembly designed for use with rack
mounted servers. It can be easily set up in a standard 19
equipment rack or cabinet. The monitor keyboard is
mounted on slide rails. The retractable assembly occupies
only 1U space, and its fold down design makes storage and
access a real convenience.
The monitor keyboard consists of a 14 (or 15 depending
on the model you purchased) TFT active matrix LCD
monitor, LCD controller designed to automatically work with
any standard analog video signal from a computer, a
keyboard with built in touchpad mouse, and power supply.
An optional waterproof, sealed membrane keyboard is also
available.
This guide provides step by step instructions for installation
and use of your monitor keyboard drawer.

The monitor keyboard drawer is constructed of heavy gauge
metal and can weight up to 30 lbs. To avoid injury during
installation watch for edges and corners on the assembly.

bodily injury, the unit is shipped with a metal strap installed
across the front bezel. It is recommended that you do not
remove it until the unit is installed in the rack, or when the
unit is set down on a level work area.

The monitor is shipped with a power cord compatible with
the AC wall outlet in your region. Use the supplied power
cord.

LCD controller. High voltages are present. Only qualified,
authorized electronics service personnel should access the
electronics components.
