Installing the front strike plate
NOTE:
The MCS 5042 comes with two different strike plate brackets for the front. One bracket
is for the MCS installed with a HP 10642 G2 (1,200 mm deep) IT rack and is labeled with an
"A." The other bracket is for the MCS installed with a HP 642 (1,200 mm) deep IT rack and is not
labeled.
You can install the front strike plate using two options:
• With the full lock position, you attach the strike plate to the electromagnetic lock directly. This option
offers a very high resistance by securing and locking the front rack door.
• With the half lock position, you partially attach the strike plate to the electromagnetic lock. This option
offers less resistance by only securing, not locking, the front rack door.
