CAUTION
zTHIS PRODUCT HAS MULTIPLE-RATED VOLTAGES (110V AND 220V). MAKE SURE TO SET THE
VOLTAGE SELECTION SWITCH AT THE REAR PANEL TO THE PROPER VOLTAGE LEVEL OF YOUR
REGION.
zTHIS PRODUCT USES A LITHIUM BATTERY. THERE IS RISK OF EXPLOSION IF THE BATTERY ON THE
MAIN BOARD IS INSTALLED INCORRECTLY. DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO
INSTRUCTIONS.
zTHIS EQUIPMENT AND ALL COMMUNICATION WIRING IS INTENDED FOR INDOOR USE.
zTO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THE UNIT TO RAIN OR
MOISTURE.
Rack Mount Instructions
A) Elevated Operating Ambience - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be
given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma)
specified by the manufacturer.
B) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
C) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is
not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
D) Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply
circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.
Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
E) Reliable Earthing - Reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular
attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use
of power strips)."
