Installation Guidelines
Follow these guidelines to make sure that your computer provides service with excellent reliability:
• The installation site must have sufficient power.
• Verify that the DC power wires meet these requirements.
• In dry environments, static charges can build up easily. Proper grounding of the computer
helps to reduce static discharges, which can cause shock and damage electronic components.
• The enclosure must allow sufficient space around air inlets and outlets to provide the
circulation necessary for cooling. See
Mounting Clearance Requirements on page 10
for
further information. Never allow air passages to become obstructed.
