Tray Slide Installation
If the system is pre-mounted in a cabinet skip this section. Locate the tray slides included
in the installation material for your system. See Figure 2 and the manufacturers
instructions, included with the tray slides, for the cabinet mounting instructions of the tray
slides. Install the left tray slide into the left side of the cabinet (as viewed from the rear).
Allow 3 RU, 5.25” (13.3cm) of space between the trays for a CU5, 30, 50, 100 or 125
systems. In high power systems, allow a space of 3 RU, 5.25” (13.3cm) for the CU50
driver and 6 RU, 10.5” (26.7cm) for each of the Innovator CXB Series amplifier trays in
higher power systems. Space must also be provided for the splitter, combiner, ATSC
filter and low pass filter, if present, whose dimensions will vary depending on the
manufacturer and the output channel.
Secure the left tray slide by connecting it to the front and rear mounting bars using No. 10
screws and the bar nuts that have been provided. Install the tray slide on the right side of
the cabinet (as viewed from the rear) making sure that it is aligned with the tray slide on
the left side. Secure the slide by connecting it to the front and rear mounting bars using
No. 10 screws and the bar nuts that have been provided. Repeat this process for any
other trays if purchased. With both slides in place, slide the tray or trays into the cabinet.

on the rear of the tray above the AC power jack, is OFF. Connect the AC power cord
supplied with the tray from J6 on the rear of the tray to the AC source. If your system
has the optional ASI to S310 Converter, check that it is connected to the AC source.
If your system is a CU250 or CU500, it also contains one 250 Watt or 500 Watt amplifier
tray. In CU1000 and higher power systems, multiple 500 Watt amplifier trays are
included. Each amplifier tray is configured for 230 VAC operation only. Check that the
ON/OFF circuit breaker, located on the rear panel under the AC power jack, is OFF.
