Installing an optional rack mount kit.
By using the RK124 rack mount kit, you can install the EMX5000-12 in a rack.
Before you rack-mount the EMX5000-20/EMX5000-12, make sure that sufficient ventilation will be maintained. (Never install the unit in a sealed rack.)
If you are going to install multiple devices including the unit in a rack, keep a 1U space or more between the devices. Use a blank panel with holes for ventilation if you wish to insert a panel between the devices.
You will need a 13U space to install the rack mount.

Attaching the rack mount hardware.
1. Remove the side panel together with the six screws indicated by arrows in diagram 1 below.
2. Fasten the rack mount hardware using screws at the locations indicated by arrows in diagram 2-1 or 2-2.
The height at which the panel (on which the knobs and faders are located) will be mounted is determined by the set of holes that you use to fasten the rack mount hardware.
3. Attach the rack mount hardware to the other side in the same way.
