The permitted mounting positions of the 8580/8590 are defined as follows:
Important: The unit can only be mounted in a range of 180° as illustrated.
4.2.3 Mechanical Dynamic Loading
Since the 8580/8590 is a weighted structure, the unit will be subject to mechanical
dynamic effects. Therefore optimizing the mounting can be very helpful.
Refer to Appendix D, “Mechanical Dynamic Loading.” for details.
4.3 Power Supply
An integrated, electrically isolated DC power supply is available for the 8580/8590.
The power pack is designed to fulfill the requirements for the full range of operating
temperatures of a 8580/8590 with standard extension modules.
In a system with a 800 MHz CPU, 512 MB RAM, HDD, a 10.4" display and an
external keyboard, this leaves approximately 20W for plug-in cards and/or external
devices.
