INSTALLATION For your safety When deciding on a location for your RM312 rackmount chassis, please take the following into consideration: Electric Power: The power cord is what powers on/off your chassis, so try to place the chassis near a power outlet for convenience. Next, be aware of RM312's power rating to avoid overloading its circuits. Then make sure the connections are grounded properly. Temperature: Whenever dealing with an enclosed environment, temperature must be a consideration.

Installing Hard Disk Drives (HDD) ? ? ? 1. Press latch towards the right to open the lever release and slide the HDD tray out of the chassis. 2. Mount the hard drive onto the tray with four screws from the HDD screw packet (P/N: 70-000000-149). 3. Slide the HDD tray back into the case and press the lever back in to secure it. 4. Repeat the procedure for the remaining hard drives. Installing an Internal HDD ( STANDARD ) ( OPTION ) ? ? ? ? 1.
Installing a FDD ? ? ? 1. Remove the securing screw to move back and take out the bracket. 2. Remove the bracket's FDD cover screws. 3. Attach the FDD onto the bracket with four additional screws from the included FDD screw packet (P/N: 70-331900-101). 4. Slide the bracket forward, following the three guide pins, until it fits into place. 5. Reattach the original securing screw. Installing a Slim CD/DVD-ROM ? ? ? 1. Release the securing screw to slide back and take out the bracket. 2.
Changing the 80mm System Fans Ž • • 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Disconnect the fan connector from the backplane. Push the press tab down, then ease the fan and its frame out of the fan bracket. Pull the press tab up to release the fan from the frame. Remove the four screws to take out the finger guard. Replace the faulty fan with a new one. Reassemble, then place back into the fan bracket and reconnect to the backplane.
Installing the Backplane (optional item) RM312 supports the following three different backplanes: SCSI, IDE, and SATA.
? ? ? ? 1. With ten screws from the backplane screw packet (P/N: 70-331900-102), attach the backplane to the bracket in the chassis as shown in the diagram. 2. To support a second backplane, affix three hex copper spacer pins. 3. Next secure both ends of the backplane with two screws on both sides of the outer chassis. 4. Repeat steps 1-3 for remaining backplane assemblies. 5. For the topmost assembly, use the three hex copper spacers without the pins to cap it off. 6.
Installing a Motherboard (optional part) ? ? ? ? ? 1. Use the included spacers for support from the motherboard screw packet (P/N: 70-331100-101). 2. Install the I/O gasket that came with your motherboard (M/B). 3. Next align the M/B with the chassis and I/O gasket. 4. The edge with the I/O ports should be placed at the back part of the chassis. 5. Secure M/B to the chassis with a screw. Installing the Power Supply Unit (optional device) ? ? 1.
Installing the General Rack Rail Kit (optional part) Sliding Rail Guide (inside facing chassis) Outer Fixed Rack Rail Screws Inner Fixed Chassis Rail The optional rack rail kit consists of three main parts: a pair of inner fixed chassis rails, a pair of outer fixed rack rails, and a pair of sliding rail guides. Each pair is identical, so no special attention is necessary to make the parts match either the left or the right side.
Installing the Bezel ? ? ? 1. First detach the handles by removing the two screws from each one. Keep handles in the event you may need them again in the future. 2. Next, install the bezel supports and tighten screws securely. 3. Then fit the right side of bezel to its corresponding support and snap into place.
