RACKMOUNT ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
The box your OpenEye G4 network recorder was shipped in should include two rail assem-
blies, two rail mounting brackets, and the mounting screws you will need to install the system
into the rack. There are a variety of rack units available on the market, which may mean the
assembly procedure will differ slightly. Refer to the installation instructions for your model of
rack unit. Please read this section in its entirety before you begin the installation procedure.
Installing the Recorder into a Rack
1. Extend the outer rails
2. Align the inner rails with the outer rails on
the rack.
3. Slide the inner rails into the outer rails,
keeping pressure even on both sides.
When pushed all the way into the rack,
the rails will click into a locked position
(preventing removal without pressing the
quick-release tabs).
Installing the Outer Rack Rails
1. Secure the back end of the outer rail to
the rack using the leaf springs and screws
provided.
2. Press the button where the two outer rails
are joined to retract the smaller outer rail.
3. Hang the hooks of the rails onto the rack
holes and, if desired, use screws to secure
the front of the outer rail onto the rack.
4. Repeat these steps for the other outer rail
extension.
Separating the Sections of Rack Rails
1. Extend the rail assembly by pulling it out-
ward.
2. Press the quick-release tab.
3. Separate the inner rail extension from the
outer rail assembly.
4. Repeat theses steps for the second rail
assembly.
Installing the Inner Rail Extensions
1. Place the inner rail extensions on the side
of the chassis, aligning the hooks of the
chassis with the rail extension holes. Make
sure the extension faces outward, just like
the pre-attached inner rail.
2. Slide the extension toward the front of the
chassis.
3. Optional: Secure the rail extension to the
chassis with 4 screws (included).
4. Repeat these steps for the other side of the
chassis.
HARD DRIVE INSTALLATION
Your recorder will be shipped with the drives in a separate box. To insert the drives, pull the
blue latch release on the front of the drive, insert the drive into the proper port, and close the
latch.

Your hard drives should be inserted in order, 1-16, depending on how many hard drives you
have purchased. Each hard drive is marked with the number of its port. See the diagram
below for the order of hard drive ports.
