nanoSwitch Installation Guide
Site Preparation
General Site Considerations
The first step is to locate an acceptable site for the equipment. When locating the mounting site,
the following points should be considered:
Ø
nanoSwitch is designed for bulkhead mounting. The system must be firmly mounted to
the bulkhead to reduce the effect of vibration
Ø
The location must have access to a dedicated 93-264 AC 50/60Hz circuit with a circuit
breaker or fuse rated at 2 Amps if using the AC power input.
Ø
The location must have access to a dedicated 24 DC circuit with a circuit breaker or fuse
rated at 5Amps, if using the DC power input.
Ø
The location must have access to a good earth ground
Ø
The location should be well ventilated with a recommended temperature of 15°C to 25°C
and a relative humidity of 5% - 90% non-condensing. The area should be suitable for
office type equipment
Ø
The equipment should be away from radio transmitting equipment, generators and other
equipment capable of generating electrical equipment. The system should be protected
from flooding and heavy machinery as well as excessive dust and vibration
Ø
The location should have adequate accessibility, space and lighting for future servicing
Ø
Telephone cables should be terminated in the integral Main Distribution Frame (MDF) or
to an external unit located within 3 metres of the telephone exchange
Check on-site Equipment
Once the equipment installation location has been identified and its suitability checked, verify
that all the equipment required is onboard and has not been damaged during shipment.
Unpack the nanoSwitch, checking that there is no damage. Check that the type and quantity of
boards received is correct and any optional equipment is available. A packing list is included with
all systems. Note that the individual boards should not be unpacked at this time.
If any equipment is missing or damaged,
notify Marine Communications Limited or your agent
to correct the situation.
Rack Based Systems
Where the system is part of a larger system such as entertainment centre then this will be rack
mounted as per the total system supplier’s instructions. Terminations for power and telephones
may be different than for the standard cased system.
PCB Installation
Boards must not be installed or removed with applied power
The system PCBs contain digital circuitry, which while extremely reliable, can be damaged by
exposure to excessive static electricity. When handling PCBs, a grounded wrist strap should be
used to protect the cards from static discharges. Also, use common sense when handling the
PCBs. For example, do not place a PCB in positions where heavy objects might fall on the PCB
and damage components.
