the ears to the ProPlex PortableMount chassis, remove the three chassis screws on each sidethat align with the rack ear mounting holes at the front of the chassis. Then use the same screws
to securely fasten the ears to the chassis, per below illustrations. The short and long ears can bemounted to either side of the chassis.

Notethe Dual version requires TWO center Dual Joiners (included in the Kit), attached at the front andrear of the units, enhancing stability in the rack.

LED driver units must have adequate airflow. When installing multiple units, they must be
mounted on alternating sides of the rack, so one does NOT reside directly above another, with atleast one-half 1U space between each assembly, per below illustration. Other ProPlex
PortableMount units – IQ, GBS, Opto-Splitter, etc. – may be mounted adjacent to each other.
Warning: Placing two FloppyDrives or IMS Universe Drives directly next to each other – vertically orhorizontally – in a rack or enclosed space will prevent adequate air circulation and may result inoverheating of the device. Misapplication will void the warranty of the ProPlex device.

Allow minimum ½ Urack space between
assemblies
