Installation Preparation
For avoidance of personal injury and device damage, please read this chapter carefully before installation.
2.1 Installation Precautions
For your safety, please follow the precautions when MX100E is installed and used.
Keep the site far from the heat and humidity
Take precautions with use of high-voltage electricity
Please let the experienced or trained operator to install and maintain MX100E
Wear static discharge wrist strap
Ensure the proper electric ground of installed equipment
Properly connect the power cable to MX100E
Do not plug the power cable when in use
UPS is advised
2.2 Site Requirements
2.2.1 Temperature and Humidity
Check the temperature and humidity of equipment room. To ensure the normal operation and long service
life of the gateway, the temperature and humidity in the room should be kept at the proper range.
The humidity in the equipment room should be kept between 10% and 90% (non-condensing). Abnormal
humidity condition may cause problems to the gateway:
Long term high humidity may lead to bad insulation and even cause electricity leakage, mechanical
property change and corrosion.
Low humidity is likely to leave captive screws to loose due to static electricity built up and the
insulation washer shrunk.
The temperature in the equipment room should be kept between 0
℃
and 40
℃
. Abnormal temperature
condition may cause problems to the gateway:
High temperature acceralets aging of electrical parts and insulation materials.
Low temperature, however, may destabilize the operation of gateway.
2.2.2 Cleanliness
Dust is very harmful to the safe operation of the gateway. Dust that is adsorbed by static electricity acts as
insulator, which not only affects the service life of the gateway but also leads to communication failure.
Therefore, the room for the gateway must be kept clean.
