RFT2 Rack Kit Installation Guide
Hardware Installation
Step
Detail
1. The following instructions assume that your
equipment rack utilizes caged nuts. If you rack
has pre-tapped holes there will be no need to
include the caged nuts and the size of the
mounting bolts may vary from that described.
Determine the vertical location for the
LCD/keyboard in the rack. Mark the location
with tape or a pencil. This product requires
one rack unit (1 ꢀ”) of vertical space. Mount
the LCD/keyboard at a convenient height for
an average user. (Approx 44” from floor)
Ensure the bottom of the kit is properly positioned in a
rack unit
2. Measure the distance from the front rack mounting
rail to the rear rack mounting rail. (This distance will
be needed during installation of the Rear slide
mounting brackets in step 4)

3. Remove the slides from the tray assembly. The
slides come shipped attached to the tray assembly,
the outer slide members must be removed to be
properly installed into the rack. To remove the outer
slide members, fully extend both slides to the open
position. Once extended unlock the outer slide
members by pressing or pulling on the blue tab on
the side of the slides. The outer slide member can
now be removed from the tray assembly. The inner
slides are left attached to the tray assembly.
Also remove the Cable Management System if
installed. This makes the installation easier.
4. Adjust the rear slide mounting brackets to the proper
depth. The rear slide mounting brackets are pre-
assembled, but may need to be adjusted to the
proper distance measured in step 2. The rear
bracket that will mount to the rack rails is free
sliding, so no screws are required.
5. Insert nut clips into the rack mounting rails as
required. If your rack has square or round untapped
holes, you will need to use 10-32 nut clips. Do not
place a nut in the center hole, this is just for
illustration purposes.

6. Attach the left slide rail assembly to the rack
mounting rail by using (4) #10-32 x ꢀ” screws for the
front and rear slide mounting brackets.
7. Repeat for the right slide rail assembly.
8. Extend the slides from the rack.
9. Install the LCD/keyboard assembly into the rack. Lift
the tray assembly and approach the rack with the
rear of the tray facing the rack enclosure. Align the
tray assembly with the slide rails in the rack.
Carefully assemble the two slide members together.
Push the tray assembly in until the slides latch
together. Release the lock mechanisms as shown in
step 3 in order to slide the tray assembly completely
closed.
You are now ready to install the Cable Management
System. See next page.

Cable Management Installation
1. With the RFT installed, go to the back of the rack to
install the cable management system.
Note the guide that will fit into
the mating portion on the slide
2. Attach Part A to part extension of outer member on
the left slide.
Part A
3. Connect Part B to the inside right hand side slide
member by sliding it into place. A “click” will be heard
once it is secured. The Cable Management System
is designed to have the cross-support beam on the
bottom…not the top.
Part C
4. Connect Part C to the outside right hand side slide
member. Note that the extruded portion on the top of
Part C needs to line up with the mating portion on the
outer slide member. Similar to Step 2 above. A “click”
will be heard once it is secured.
Part B
5. Insert Part D into Part A on the left hand side. The
large tab on Part A will keep Part D in place.

Connecting your LCD/Keyboard
Step
Detail
! Note: Before connecting the LCD monitor/keyboard to a KVM or
Server, all systems should be turned off.
HD-15
DVI
1. The keyboard and trackball’s design allows it to be used with most Sun
systems. The RFT2 comes with a USB style connector.
2. The monitor uses a standard HD-15 or DVI male video connector. If
your Sun system uses a DB13W3 connection, you can use a Sun
adapter to interface between the LCD connector and the Sun system.
(PN: X3872A)
3. If both HD-15 and DVI cables are connected at the same time, HD-15
will be the default input.
Power
USB
4. Connect the monitor to a power source. The LCD Monitor’s power
supply is auto ranging, and will operate on AC voltages ranging from
90-264V and 50-60 Hz. The monitor uses an IEC 320-C14 connector
and a 2m IEC C13 to C14 cable is included. An adapter will be required
to interface with other connector types.
5. Secure the cables to ensure they will not bind when operating the
LCD/keyboard slide mechanism. Cycle the tray in and out of the
cabinet to ensure there is enough of a service loop in the cables. Zip
ties may be used to hold the cables securely to the back of the unit.

RFT2 Rack Kit Installation Guide
Operating the LCD/Keyboard
NOTE: It is important to ensure that the monitor is connected and powered on prior to powering up the connected
server and/or KVM. Powering up the KVM then the server last will with some servers allow the video card and
monitor to self configure to the correct settings.
After the unit has been installed and all cables connected, power on the LCD monitor by lifting the head unit.
(There is a power button at the rear of the LCD which is actuated by lifting the head of the LCD monitor.) The LED
situated on the top of the LCD panel will alert you to its status. It will illuminate green when everything is working
properly. If the LED is orange, the monitor is powered up but not receiving a valid video signal.
Once the LCD monitor is powered on, power on the connected server and/or KVM and log in (or otherwise ensure
that a full screen image is displayed).
NOTE: If the monitor does not power up automatically when raised, the power button at the rear of the unit may
need to be cycled. There is also a Power button on the top of the LCD which may also need to be cycled.
NOTE: It is important to ensure that a full screen image is being displayed at the time the monitor is in the Auto-
Adjust function. The display may be mis-positioned if an image with a black border (such as a login screen) or
partial screen is used.

Trouble Shooting Bad Image Quality
Image quality problems (blurry characters, distorted images, etc) are usually caused by one of the
following:
The graphics card is running at the wrong resolution for the LCD monitor:
The monitor optimally runs at a resolution of 1280x1024x60Hz. To display the monitor resolution,
press the Menu Button at the top of the LCD twice. The on-screen display will display the current
resolution and frequency. If this is not what was expected (variances of a fraction of a hertz in the
displayed refresh rate are not significant), adjust the settings of your graphics card to display
1280x1024 at 60Hz resolution.
The monitor has not been adjusted for the particular graphics card driving it:
Perform an "Auto Adjustment" after logging in (ensuring a full screen image is being displayed
prior to running the Auto Adjustment). In some cases it may be necessary to power cycle the
monitor prior to running the Auto Adjust function (e.g. when the resolution is altered during the
system boot sequence).
Improperly matched timing:
Some computer systems communicate with the monitor during system startup and configure an
optimum resolution. Ensure that the monitor is powered on before the computer system to ensure
that this process can occur.
Refresh set rate is too high.
For LCD monitors it is recommended the refresh rate be set to 60 Hz. The monitor is capable of
running at higher refresh rates, but optimally runs at 60Hz. The LCD Monitor uses advanced
technology that has no flicker in normal operation, and it is never influenced by the refresh rate.
When the monitor is run at refresh rates higher than 60Hz there is processing overhead, which
can cause a number of performance issues, included degraded image quality and greater
tendency for interference. The first and foremost recommended vertical refresh rate for the LCD
Monitor is 60Hz (1280x1024@60Hz). Use other rates only if the connected system’s graphics
card cannot accommodate 1280x1024x60Hz.
