VAX 4000 Model 300 Installation Checklist

This document is the "VAX 4000 Model 300 Installation Checklist," published by Digital Equipment Corporation in June 1991.

It serves as a supplementary guide, intended to be used in conjunction with the system's main Installation manual and other related documents (such as Site Preparation, Operation, and Troubleshooting manuals). The checklist provides a sequential list of tasks for installing the VAX 4000 Model 300, allowing users to verify completion of each step.

The installation process covered includes:

• Verifying site preparation (power, space, environmental conditions).
• Checking the shipment against the delivery document.
• Positioning the system.
• Opening system doors and installing the console terminal.
• Setting system controls and connecting various devices (terminals, printers, network, expanders).
• Connecting internal and power cables (with specific notes for dual-host systems).
• Powering on the system and selecting a language.
• Closing system doors.
• Post-installation tasks like learning controls, running diagnostics, and installing operating system software.

The document also provides important cautions regarding the system warranty (noting that Digital may require a service representative for installation), instructions for handling dual-host systems, and contact information for Digital's customer support hotline.
