Installing the HDR 1800
This section explains how to install an HDR 1800. To ensure that the HDR 1800 functions properly,
consider the following:
Verify the outlet where you will connect the HDR 1800 for proper polarity. Use a standard
outlet only.
Use a surge protection device to minimize the risk of damage to the HDR 1800 in surge-
prone environments.
Do not install the HDR 1800 in an enclosed cabinet or other small, unventilated area. The
HDR 1800 can be mounted above other devices, as long as there is adequate ventilation
surrounding the rack.
Verify the dimensions of the shelf or surface to ensure that the HDR 1800 fits. The HDR
1800 is 11 inches wide by 7.5 inches deep by 1.7 inches high (280mm ×190mm ×44mm).
NOTE: This equipment must be used in compliance with local laws and regulations.
The following installation options are available:
Installing the HDR 1800 on a desktop or flat surface (see page 9)
Installing the HDR 1800 on a rack (see page 9)
Mounting the HDR 1800 on a wall (see page 9)
To install the HDR 1800 on a flat surface:
1. Remove any debris and dust from the surface as well as the surrounding area.
