Assembling the System (MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3)

The following section contains the information needed to install ferrites, position the stabilizing feet, locate key components, and provide proper clearance for the cooling system.

Installing Ferrites (MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3)


 

Note: You must install all required ferrites before you begin installing the system.

See installing ferrites for general information about installing ferrites. See installing ferrites on the MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3 for specific information.

Once you have installed all required ferrites, begin assembling your system.

Positioning the Stabilizing Feet (MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3)

The MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3 are mini-tower configurations. These units sit either on a desktop or on the floor under a desk. Both include four stabilizing feet attached to the bottom of the chassis.

To position the stabilizing feet:

  1. Place the chassis right side up on its stabilizing feet, as in the Chassis (MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3) graphic.
     


    Do not use the dress cover as a grip area to move or lift the MAP/5P or MAP/5PV3. You may damage the chassis if you attempt to pick it up by the dress cover. The dress cover cannot support the weight of the chassis.

  2. Firmly grasp a corner of the chassis to stabilize the unit.
  3. Turn the stabilizing feet out into position until they click as shown in the figure Positioning the Stabilizing Feet (MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3). Ensure that each foot is fully extended into position. See Proper Clearance (MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3) for information about the proper placement of the MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3.

Key Components on the Front (MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3)

See the graphic Front View with the Dress Cover Removed (MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3) and for a description of each component on the front of the MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3.

Key Components on the Back (MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3)

See the graphic Back View (MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3) and a description of each component on the back of the MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3.

Cooling System (MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3)

Air must circulate inside and around the computer chassis to prevent components from overheating, which can cause system malfunctions. Using interior fans and ensuring proper clearance around the chassis are two ways to maintain proper temperatures within the computer.

Interior Fans (MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3)

The interior fans help maintain air flow in the computer to prevent components from overheating, which can cause components to malfunction. The following table contains a description of each interior fan.


 
Table: MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3 Interior Fans
Fan Name
Description
Note
Circuit card cage fan
Air flows through the circuit card cage fan and exits through vents in the back of the computer.
Located on the front of the MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3 under the diskette bays and behind the lower front dress cover.
Power supply fan
Exhausts air to the rear of the unit.
Located within the power supply.
CPU fan
Maintains air flow around the CPU.
Located on top of the CPU.

Proper Clearance (MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3)

You must maintain clearance around the chassis so that air can circulate to prevent overheating. The final position of the computer must include a front-to-back clearance of at least 6 inches (16 centimeters) to provide for adequate air intake and exhaust.

The MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3 chassis has vents on both sides. If viewed from the front, the left vent is larger than the right vent. Wherever possible, position the MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3 with the left vent away from a wall or the side of a desk to allow proper air circulation. You must leave a minimum of 2 inches (5 centimeters) of space along both sides of the chassis.
