WARNING NOTICE TO USER!
Although preventative safety measures have been designed into Radial 500 series
products
we strictly advise against hot-swapping modules
or plugging and
unplugging them when the Workhorse or other 500 series rack is powered on. Hot
swapping can cause connection sparks at the card-edge connector that could send
damaging transients to other equipment. This also greatly reduces the life span of the
contacts. Damage due to hot swapping is not covered under warranty. There are no
user serviceable parts inside.
