5.3 ESD Precautions
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is generated by two objects with different
electrical charges coming into contact with each other. An electrical
discharge is created to neutralize this difference, which can damage
electronic components and printed circuit boards. Use a grounded wrist
strap designed to prevent electrostatic discharge.
Note –
It is highly recommended to use a UPS (Uninterruptible Power
Supply) in critical environments with your StoneGate appliance. If
after a brief power outage your StoneGate appliance only partially
starts up (for example, the power light is on, but the NIC LEDs are
off and the appliance does not connect) turn the appliance off for five
seconds and then back on. This will resolve the power issues.
5.4 Operating Precautions
Care must be taken to assure that the chassis cover is in place when the
SG-250/SG-200 is operating to ensure proper cooling. Out of warranty
damage to the SG-250/SG-200 system can occur if this practice is not
strictly followed.
We strongly recommend using the
reboot
and
halt
commands in
order to reboot and shut down the engine respectively. The use of the
init
command may cause serious damage to the engine.
