Operating Environment and Ruggedness
A clean and moisture-free environment is preferred.
If it is necessary to work in a hostile environment, please make sure all ports are well
protected from dust, moisture, or water. Proper isolation from extreme hazardous
exposure is recommended.
The computer is designed with rugged features of vibration, shock, dust, and rain/water
protection. However, it is still necessary to provide appropriate protection while exposing
to harsh environments.
All connectors will decay or corrode if exposed to water or moisture. Corrosion is
accelerated if the power is ON. Please take proper water-resistant measures for cable
connections.
The DC jack is sealed type which may be operated with water splashing while DC power
cord attached. All other port caps should be in place when no cable is attached.
Regularly maintain the computer by cleaning dust, water, etc. will help keeping it in
optimal condition.
Warning: There is no isolated compartment in SD slot, PCMCIA slot, and docking.
These ports must be tightly sealed while working with dust/water.
