Overview

To prepare panels for use with an iPatch System, you must perform the following steps:

Step 1 – Mount a panel bus for the rack.

Step 2 – Install an iPatch manager to supervise the rack.

Step 3 – Connect each panel to the panel bus.

Step 4 – Program the order of the panels in the rack.

Step 1 – Mount the Panel Bus

A panel bus must be installed on each rack where you plan to iPatch install panels. The panel bus allows

the iPatch Manager and iPatch panels to communicate. Also, the iPatch Manager supplies power to the

iPatch panels through the panel bus.

The panel bus must be installed to the left on the rack (viewed from the front). The preferred location is the

back corner of the rack's left rail. The area where the panel bus will be mounted must be free of protrusions,

such as threaded inserts, nuts, and bolts.

To mount the panel bus on a rack other than a 7-foot (2.1m) rack or on a rack with a hole pattern other than

the universal hole pattern, contact your local account representative.

For instructions to install the panel bus for the rack, see the SYSTIMAX

(860442573).
