Handling Precautions
WARNING: This system has internal components which may be damaged by electrostatic discharge.
To protect internal components from electrostatic damage, be sure to observe the following precautions
when handling or storing the system:
• The TRC4011 and TVC4403 both have a net chassis weight of approximately 30lbs. (13.62kg).
This base chassis weight includes the chassis, a system host board, a 14-slot backplane and a rear-
mounted, fixed or redundant power supply. Use proper lifting techniques when moving and
installing the system.
• When removing or installing boards and sub-components, keep these components in their static-
shielded bag and/or packaging until you are ready to for component installation.
• Handle the sub-components by their edges.
• Do not touch any sub-component I/O connector pins. Do not apply pressure or attach labels to the
board-level sub-components.
• Use a grounded wrist strap at your system or ground yourself frequently by touching the metal
chassis of the system before handling any sub-components.
• Ensure the systems external power source has a solid connection to an earth ground.
• Use antistatic padding on all work surfaces when installing or removing sub-components.
• Avoid static-inducing carpeted areas.

INTRODUCTION
It is important to be aware of the information listed below before installing your Trenton rackmount
computer. System performance may be affected by incorrect usage of these features.
EXTERNAL POWER SOURCE -FIXED
Incoming AC power must be supplied to the rear-mounted, fixed power supply receptacle located in the
rear of the chassis. This AC power connection ensures that the system power supply is connected to a
power source with a solid earth ground and is capable of delivering 110-240VAC at 50 to 60Hz.
EXTERNAL POWER SOURCE –REDUNDANT
Incoming AC power must be supplied to both of the receptacles located on the rear of the chassis. This
dual AC power connection ensures that the main system power supply as well as the fail-over supply are
each connected to a power source with a solid earth ground and is capable of delivering 110-240VAC at 50
to 60Hz. The typical maximum current draw of the rackmount computer is 4.07A per incoming power
receptacle.
INTERNAL 5V CURRENT LIMIT
The maximum current limits for the +5V, +3.3V and +12V outputs from the system power supply are 32A,
32A and 65A respectively. The system’s power monitoring circuits will shut the system down if these
maximum current limits are drawn from the power supply.
CHASSIS AIRFLOW
When installing the chassis, ensure that a minimum free air space is available around the system. The
installation should have a minimum of 4-6 inches (101-152mm) behind the chassis and 1-3 inches (25-
75mm) in front of the chassis. Any front cabinet doors or access aisles must accommodate a TRC4011 /
TVC4403 front chassis clearance of at least 4.0” (102mm) in order to provide proper cable clearances for
any front panel I/O port connections and to gain access to the system air filter for maintenance. Ideally, a
chassis clearance of 0.5-1.5 inches (13-38mm) above the system is desirable, but not required.
CHASSIS RACK MOUNTING
The TRC4011 / TVC4403 system can be installed in a rackmount cabinet that conforms to EIA standards
for computer equipment with 19-inch wide panels. The cabinet must be tall enough to accommodate the
computer’s height and deep enough to accomendate the system’s depth, while providing the proper
clearences for air flow and cabling. A cabinet with a standard depth of 31.5 inches (800mm) should be
sufficient; however, a rack with a non-standard depth dimension of at least 22 inches (559mm) will provide
the suggested minimum front and rear chassis clearances needed for an installation.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS
When installing the chassis, ensure that a minimum free air space is available around the system. The
installation should have a minimum of 4-6 inches (101-152mm) in front of and behind the chassis and 1-3
inches (25-75mm) in front of the chassis. Ideally, a chassis clearance of 0.5-1.5 inches (13-38mm) above
the system is desirable, but not required. The computer is equipped with fans to help ensure proper
cooling.
RACK MOUNTING
The TRC4011 / TVC4403 system can be installed in a rackmount cabinet that conforms to EIA standards
for computer equipment with 19-inch wide panels. The cabinet must be tall enough to accommodate the
computer’s height and deep enough to accomendate the system’s depth, while providing the proper
clearences for air flow and cabling. A cabinet with a standard depth of 31.5 inches (800mm) should be
sufficient; however, a rack with a non-standard depth dimension of at least 26 inches (660mm) will provide
the suggested minimum front and rear chassis clearances needed for an installation.
The TRC4011 / TVC4403 is designed to be supported in the cabinet with rack slides or placed on a cabinet
shelf. The front flanges of the computer are designed to secure the TRC4011 / TVC4403 to the rack
cabinet’s front mounting rails
RACKMOUNT INSTRUCTIONS
A) Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be
given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature
(Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
B) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
C) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition
is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
D) Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply
circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on over current protection and supply
wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this
concern.
E) Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular
attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use
of power strips).
F) Chassis Access – Use in a RESTRICTED ACCESS LOCATION only.
NOTE: Only trained personnel shall install or operate this equipment

2. Take one of the slide rails and slide the inside portion of the rail completely out until you hear an
audible click.
3. On the inside of the rail, you will see a rail stop hook, push the hook up to release and detach the
inside portion of the slide completely from the outside portion of the rack slide.
4. Set aside this inside portion of the rack slide. You will be mounting this part of the rack slide to a
side of the computer chassis later in this procedure.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the other rack slide. (Refer to figure 1 as necessary)
6. Using four mounting screws from hardware bag S-047-0, attach an inside rail to the left side of the
computer chassis as shown in figure 2. Note – the rubber bumper on the inside rail slide needs to
be facing toward the front of the computer and the cut-out portion of the rail release latch should
be pointing downward indicating that the slide rail has been properly mounted to the correct side
of the computer chassis.
7. Repeat step 6 for the right side on the computer and refer to figure 2 as necessary.
8. Standard 19” instrument racks have a wide variety of mounting hole types. Some mounting holes
are threaded, but most of not, some mounting holes are located on side flanges rather than the
front and back of the rack supports and finally some holes are round while others are rectangular.
Figure 1 – Rail Stop Hook Detail
Figure 2 – Inside Rail Mounting Detail

TRC4011 / TVC4403 Installation Guide
3-3 Trenton Systems, Inc.
The following steps assume that your 19” instrument rack has round, non-threaded mounting holes
for the slide rail frames. The optional rack frame mounting brackets accommodate the side flange
rackmount hole placements. If your rack has other mounting hole types or placements, then you
may need to consult with your rack supplier to obtain the correct slide rail mounting hardware.
9. The rubber bumper on the outside portion of slide rails are to be located toward the rear of the
19”rack.
10. Refer to figure 3 and attach two rail frames each to the outside portion of both rack slides using
the hardware in bag number S-107-1.
11. If the mounting holes are on the inside portions of your rackmount supports, then mount each
assembly directly to the rack supports as shown in figure 4-A.
12. If the mounting holes are located on side flanges then you will need to use the optional rack frame
mounting brackets.
13. Attach the optional brackets to the rack slides as shown in figure 4-B and attach the completed
assembly to the rack supports.
14. You will need to supply the hardware necessary to mount your completed rail and frame
assemblies to the rackmount enclosure supports.
15. CAUTION – Ensure that when mounting the completed rail and frame assemblies to the 19” rack
that the left and right assemblies are the same distance from the top or bottom of the rack. Failure
to align the slide rails properly will result in the computer not being level inside the rack. If the
slides are grossly misaligned then you may not be able to slide the chassis into the slide rails.
16. Refer to figure 5 and slide the chassis into the rails attached to the frame of the rackmount
enclosure. (You should have another person help you lift and slide the chassis into the enclosure.)
