Safety Information

Caution Before undertaking any troubleshooting, maintenance, or exploratory procedure,

carefully read the following caution notices.

Caution Overloading the circuits may damage supply wiring. Do not exceed the ratings on

the equipment nameplate when connecting equipment to the supply circuit.

This equipment contains voltage hazardous to human life and safety, and is

capable of inflicting personal injury.

•Chassis Grounding—The NI RMC-8354 requires a connection from

the premise wire safety ground to the NI RMC-8354 chassis ground.

The earth safety ground must be connected during use of this

equipment to minimize shock hazards. Refer to the Connecting Safety

Ground section for instructions on connecting safety ground.

•Live Circuits—Operating personnel and service personnel must

not remove protective covers when operating or servicing the

NI RMC-8354. Adjustments and service to internal components must

be undertaken by qualified service technicians. During service of

this product, the mains connector to the premise wiring must be

disconnected. Dangerous voltages may be present under certain

conditions; use extreme caution.

•Explosive Atmosphere—Do not operate the chassis in conditions

where flammable gases are present. Under such conditions, this

equipment is unsafe and may ignite the gases or gas fumes.

•Parts Replacement—Service this equipment only with parts that

are exact replacements, both electrically and mechanically. Contact

National Instruments for replacement part information. Installation of

parts with those that are not direct replacements may cause harm to

personnel operating the chassis. Furthermore, damage or fire may

occur if replacement parts are unsuitable.

•Modification—Do not modify any part of the NI RMC-8354 from

its original condition. Unsuitable modifications may result in safety

hazards.

Chassis Cooling Considerations

The NI RMC-8354 is designed to operate on a bench or in an instrument

rack. Determine how you want to use the NI RMC-8354 and follow the

appropriate installation instructions.

Caution If installed in a closed or multiunit rack assembly, the rack environment operating

ambient temperature may be greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore, install

the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient operating

temperature (Tma) specified in Appendix A, Specifications, in the NI RMC-8354 User

Manual.

Providing Adequate Clearance

Apertures in the front, top, rear, and along both sides of the chassis

facilitate power supply and motherboard cooling. Air enters through the

front and top inlets of the chassis and exits through the fans on the rear of

the chassis. Place the NI RMC-8354 on a bench top or in an instrument rack

so that the fans (air outlets) and the air inlet apertures along the top and

front of the chassis have adequate ventilation. Keep other equipment a

minimum of 76.2 mm (3 in.) away from the air outlets on the rear of the

chassis.

Installation

Follow these steps to connect devices to the NI RMC-8354:

1. Connect a keyboard and mouse to the appropriate connectors on the

NI RMC-8354 rear panel.

2. Connect the VGA monitor video cable to the VGA connector on the

rear panel.

3. (Optional) To boot into LabVIEW RT, connect the network cable to

LAN jack 1 on the rear panel. (Refer to Figure 3-1, NI RMC-8354 Rear

Panel Layout, in the NI RMC-8354 User Manual for the location of

LAN jack 1.)

4. Connect the USB, serial, and parallel devices as necessary to the

NI RMC-8354 front and rear panel ports.

Caution To minimize shock hazard, make sure the electrical power outlet you use to power

the NI RMC-8354 has an appropriate earth safety ground. Refer to the Connecting Safety

Ground section for more information.

5. Connect the AC power cable to the AC inlet on the rear panel and to an

AC power outlet. For more information, refer to the Connecting to

Power Source section.

NI RMC-8354 Installation Guide 10 ni.com

6. Power on the NI RMC-8354.

7. Verify that the NI RMC-8354 boots. If it does not boot, refer to the

What if the NI RMC-8354 does not boot? section of Chapter 5,

Troubleshooting, in the NI RMC-8354 User Manual.

Connecting Safety Ground

The NI RMC-8354 is designed with a three-position NEMA 5-15 style plug

for the U.S. that connects the ground line to the chassis ground. To

minimize shock hazard, make sure the electrical power outlet you use to

power the chassis has an appropriate earth safety ground.

Connecting to Power Source

Attach input power through the rear AC inlet using the appropriate

AC power cable supplied.

Caution Overloading the circuits may damage supply wiring. Do not exceed the ratings on

the equipment nameplate when connecting equipment to the supply circuit.

Caution To completely remove power, you must disconnect the AC power cable.

The power switch allows you to power on the chassis or place it in standby

mode. Push the power switch to the On position (if not already on). Observe

that all fans become operational and the power indicator is lit.

Rack Mounting

Note The rack mount kit provided with the NI RMC-8354 is intended to work with racks

that are 26–33 in. deep. For information about installing the NI RMC-8354 into a rack that

is less than 26 in. deep, refer to KnowledgeBase 4GCEKKMT at ni.com/support.

The rack mounting hardware includes:

• One pair of inner slides to be installed on the chassis.

• One pair of outer slides to be installed in the rack.

• Three pairs of short brackets for the outer slides.

• Bag of assorted fasteners.

• One pair of long brackets for the rear of the outer slides.

Caution When mounting the equipment in the rack, do not create a hazardous condition

due to uneven mechanical loading.
