Step 3: Mount KIT-400
Install KIT-400 using one of the following methods:
•Attach the rubber feet and place the unit on a flat surface.
•Fasten a bracket (included) on each side of the unit and attach it to a flat surface
(see www.kramerav.com/downloads/KIT-400).
•Mount the unit in a rack using the recommended rack adapter
(see www.kramerav.com/product/KIT-400).
•Ensure that the environment (e.g., maximum ambient temperature &
air flow) is compatible for the device.
•Avoid uneven mechanical loading.
•Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be
used for avoiding overloading of the circuits.
•Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.
•Maximum mounting height for the device is 2 meters.
Step 4: Connect inputs and outputs
Always switch OFF the power on each device before connecting it to your KIT-400.
