IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THIS SECTION BEFORE USING THE GCX20
2.1 INSPECTION AND UNPACKING
The GCX20 has been carefully packed at our factory in a carton designed to withstand handling in
transit. Should the unit appear to have been damaged in transit notify your dealer immediately and do
not discard any of the packing. The carton should contain -
•
The GCX20 unit
• Power
cord
•
Operator Manual (this book)
2.2 OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
The GCX20 is designed to operate between 0 and 50°C (32-122°F) with relative humidity no more
than 80%. Should the unit be installed in an equipment rack, ensure that the ambient temperature
conforms to these levels.
2.3 CE STANDARDS AND THE LOW VOLTAGE DIRECTIVE (LVD)
The GCX20 has been designed to meet the latest Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) regulations.
However we recommend you do not operate the unit close to strong emitters of electromagnetic
radiation such as power transformers, motors, mobile telephones or radio transmitters.
The unit should only be connected to a power supply of the type described in 2.4 POWER
REQUIREMENTS or as marked on the unit. The unit must be earthed for safe operation. Disconnect
the mains supply before removing any cover.
2.4 POWER REQUIREMENTS
There is a mains fuse located inside the unit which is accessed by removing the cover. This fuse is
for protection against unit faults and as such will not normally need replacing. If you think you have a
power related problem please refer to your dealer.
The voltage and fuse rating have been factory set for -
230V
50mA
UK
220V
50mA
Republic
of

•
The correct voltage and fuse rating is indicated on the rear panel.
•
Please check that your unit is correctly rated for the voltage of
the
country
of
operation.
If the fuse requires changing at any time please ensure the correct fuse is fitted. An incorrect fuse
could cause damage to the unit and may constitute a fire hazard.
If you carry your GCX20 from one country to another it is very important to ensure the voltage is
compatible.
