SPARC/CPU-54 xxi
Safety Notes
This section provides safety precautions to follow when installing, operat-
ing, and maintaining the SPARC/CPU-54.
We intend to provide all necessary information to install and handle the
SPARC/CPU-54 in this Reference Guide. However, as the product is com-
plex and its usage manifold, we do not guarantee that the given informa-
tion is complete. If you need additional information, ask your Force
Computers representative.
The SPARC/CPU-54 has been designed to meet the standard industrial
safety requirements. It must not be used except in its specific area of
office telecommunication industry and industrial control.
Only personnel trained by Force Computers or persons qualified in elec-
tronics or electrical engineering are authorized to install, maintain, and
operate the SPARC/CPU-54. The information given in this manual is
meant to complete the knowledge of a specialist and must not be taken as
replacement for qualified personnel.
EMC
The board has been tested in a standard Force Computers system and
found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device in this sys-
tem, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules, EN 55022 Class A respectively.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harm-
ful interference when the system is operated in a commercial, business or
industrial environment.
Note: The board is not compliant to EN 55022 if you connect a SCSI de-
vice to the SCSI connector on the front panel.
The board generates and uses radio frequency energy and, if not
installed properly and used in accordance with this Reference Guide,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operating the
system in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in
which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own
expense.
If you use the board without a PMC module, cover empty slots with
blind panels to ensure proper EMC shielding. If boards are integrated
into open systems, always cover empty slots.
