or oset mid-mount orientation (see Figure 1).
Step 1. Depending on the size of the rack, select one of the following sets of mounting
ears:
y For 19in racks, use (2) 590-1936-10
y For 23in racks, use (2) 590-1937-10
Step 2. Attach the two (2) front mounting ears in the appropriate conguration using
the included #10-32 hardware (see Figure 1).
Step 3. Attach the lacing bar to the rear of the panel using the included #10-32
hardware (see Figure 2).
NOTE: Installation of the rear cable lacing bar is optional but highly
recommended to provide strain relief for connected cables.

ampacity.
Step 2. The rst breaker in inventory will be shown, along with its currently set
ampacity. If the ampacity is incorrect, press and hold the SmartSwitch™ for 3
seconds to enter the menu.
Step 3. Tap the SmartSwitch™ until the correct ampacity is displayed (the display will
advance through standard Slimline breaker ampacities: 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 50,
60, 70, 80, and 100), then press and hold for 3 seconds to save the value.
Step 4. The next breaker in inventory will now be displayed. Repeat Steps 1-3 for each
breaker in inventory.
Step 5. Once all of the breaker ampacities are set correctly, advance to the screen that
says “EXIT HOLD 3 S” and hold the SmartSwitch™ for 3 seconds to exit the
menu and save the values.
This completes the initial SmartSwitch™ setup.
