Installation and Safety Precautions
Please read the following guidelines concerning installation and wiring before installing the iPECS eMG800
System. Also, be sure to comply with applicable local regulations.
When installing the telephone wiring, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of
fire, electric shock, and personal injury, including the following:
Never install the telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
Never install the telephone jack in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet
locations.
Never touch un-insulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been
disconnected at the network interface.
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
Anti-static precautions should be taken during installation.
The iPECS eMG800 System is designed for wall mounting or a freestanding rack. Avoid installing in the
following places:
In direct sunlight and extremely hot, cold, or humid places (optimal temperature range = 0 to 40C).
Places where shocks or vibrations are frequent or strong.
Dusty places or places where the System may encounter water or oil.
Near high frequency generating devices such as sewing machines or electric welding machines.
On or near computers, fax machines, or other office equipment, as well as microwave ovens or air
conditioners.
Do not obstruct the openings on the sides of the iPECS eMG800 System.
Do not stack up the Optional Service Boards.
Be sure to follow these precautions when wiring:
Do not wire the telephone cable in parallel with an AC power source, computer, fax machine, etc. If
the cables are run near such wires, shield the cables with metal tubing or use shielded cables and
ground the shields.
If the cables are run on the floor, use protectors to prevent the wires from being damaged by foot
traffic. Avoid wiring under carpets.
Do not use the same power supply outlet for computers, fax machine, and other office equipment to
avoid inducing RF noise into the iPECS eMG800 system.
