LOCATION AND ENVIRONMENT
Environmental Considerations
The ambient temperature for all the supplied equipment should not exceed the limits of 5 and 35
degrees C. at a relative humidity of 10 to 90% (non-condensing).
Installing the equipment in a clean environment with moderate temperature and humidity will
promote a long and trouble-free equipment life.
Location
The HD1000 may be used free-standing (table-top configuration) or installed in a standard 483mm
(19 inch) equipment rack. The following precautions should be observed:
a) The cooling fan exhausts at the rear of the unit must not be obstructed - a minimum clearance
of 200mm (8 inches) is
ESSENTIAL
.
b) The slots in the front panel are to allow the inlet of cooling air and
MUST NOT BE
OBSTRUCTED.
c)
When mounting the mainframe in an equipment rack it
MUST
be supported at the rear, not by
the rack-mounting ears alone.
Cooling is provided by drawing air in at the front of the unit and exhausting it at the rear.
The mainframe should never be operated for any significant period of time with any covers
removed as this will affect the internal airflow and cause overheating.
Control Panel Installation
The control panel is designed to stand freely on a tabletop.
If it is necessary to secure the control panel to a control desk (e.g., in an OB van) the control panel
has to be opened. This installation MUST be carried out by a qualified Installation or Service
engineer.
Battery
WARNING -
There is a battery holder on the MBX card within the Control Panel which is not used.
No battery should be fitted to this card
