Chapter One - 3
Getting Started
Ruggedness
The computer is designed with rugged features such as vibration, shock, dust, and
rain/water protection. However, it is still necessary to provide appropriate protection while
operating in harsh environments.
NEVER immerse the computer in water. Doing so may cause permanent damages. Drop
may cause parts break or permanent damages.
The D-sub connector cap is for dust and shock protection only. The connector itself is
sealed internally. Other I/O ports and devices must have caps tightly closed or cable inlets
sealed while exposed to water or dust.
All connectors will corrode if exposed to water or moisture. Corrosion is accelerated if the
power is ON. Please take proper measures in cable connection to avoid water entering into
connectors.
The DC jack and cables are sealed and may be operated with water splashing while
attached. All port covers should be in place when no cable is attached.
