Introduction

2. Unpacking the IRIS Workstation Components

The IRIS Workstation system is shipped in two reinforced cardboard cartons.

One contains the Electronics Cabinet and the other contains the Monitor and

other components. Each component is delivered assembled and ready for

connection with the cables provided in the IRIS Workstation delivery cartons.

If additional equipment or spare parts are ordered, they will be shipped in

additional cartons.

Before installation, the delivery cartons should be inspected for damage. If any

of the cartons or their contents appear damaged, contact the carrier and Silicon

Graphics Customer Service (see Section 1). After inspection, move the cartons

to the installation site. See Table 2-1 for a list of guidelines for site selection.

Although site selection is the customer’s responsibility, Silicon Graphics

representatives will provide consulting services upon request.

1. Inspect the delivery cartons for damage.

WARNING: The delivery cartons should be moved on a pallet jack

or cart capable of supporting 200 lbs. If they must be lifted, two

strong people are needed.

WARNING: Do not turn the delivery cartons on edge.

2. Move the cartons to the installation site.

3. Cut the plastic straps on the brown carton.

4. Cut the tape that seals the top of the carton, open the carton and

remove the tray containing the Keyboard, Mouse, cables and other

equipment.

5. Remove the foam spacers covering the Monitor.

6. Remove the carton by lifting it up and off the base pallet.

7. The Monitor is shipped inside a large plastic bag. Remove the

Monitor from the bag and place it on the table where it will be used.

WARNING: Do not attempt to pick up the Monitor by the white

plastic inserts on the sides.

8. Check for damage to the Monitor.
