Safety Instructions (UK)

To prevent damage to your Datapath product or injury to personnel operating the equipment, please 

read the following safety precautions prior to operation.  These instructions should be made avail-

able to all those who will use and operate Datapath products.

Power Supply

All Datapath products require a mains power supply.  This power supply must be disconnected when 

equipment is being upgraded or relocated.

Cables

Do not expose cables to any liquids; doing so may cause a short circuit which could damage the  

equipment.  Do not place heavy objects on top of any cables as this can cause damage and possibly 

lead to exposed live wires.

Ventilation

All computer equipment should be located in a well ventilated area.  All ventilation holes on the 

computer casing must be kept clear of any obstruction at all times.  Failure to do so will result in the 

system over heating and damaging your equipment.

Working Environment

The equipment should be located in an environment free from dust, moisture and extreme changes 

in temperature and should be placed on a stable and solid work surface.  Liquids (hot/cold drinks etc) 

should not be placed near the equipment as spillage could cause serious damage.

Gas/Flammable Liquids

Electronic equipment should never be used in the presence of gas or any flammable liquid, doing so 

could result in an explosion or serious fire.

Smoke/Unusual Smells

Should you notice smoke or unusual smells being emitted from your computer, turn off and unplug 

the system from the mains supply.  The system should then be passed to a qualified technician for 

 

inspection.  Continued operation could result in personal injury and damage to property. 

Maintenance

Maintenance should only be carried out by competent technicians, any Datapath plug-in cards that 

are physically damaged should be returned to Datapath for repair using Datapath RMA procedures.

Disposal

At the end of life all Datapath products should be disposed of as per local laws and regulations dic-

tate.  In UK contact Datapath to arrange disposal.  Our WEE registration number is WEEE/AA0005ZR.

 

Consignes de sécurité (Fr)

Afin de ne pas endommager votre produit Datapath et d’éviter tout risque de blessure du personnel 

exploitant le matériel, veuillez lire les consignes de sécurité suivantes avant toute utilisation. Ces 
instructions doivent être mises à disposition de toute personne souhaitant utiliser et exploiter les 
produits Datapath.

Alimentation électrique

Tous les produits Datapath requièrent une alimentation électrique principale. Cette alimentation 
électrique doit être interrompue en cas de mise à jour ou de relocalisation du matériel.

Câbles

Ne pas exposer les câbles à un liquide quelconque car cela pourrait provoquer un court-circuit suscep-

tible d’endommager le matériel.

Ne pas placer d’objets lourds sur les câbles car cela pourrait causer des dommages et conduire éven

-

tuellement à des fils électriques dénudés.

Ventilation

Tout matériel informatique doit être disposé dans un endroit bien ventilé. Veiller à ne jamais obstruer 

les orifices de ventilation du boîtier de l’ordinateur ; sinon, il y a risque de surchauffe du système et 

votre matériel peut être endommagé. 

Environnement de travail

Le matériel doit être placé sur une surface de travail stable et solide, dans un environnement exempt 

de poussière et d’humidité et non exposé à des variations extrêmes de températures. Ne pas placer 

de liquides (boissons chaudes/froides, etc.) près du matériel, car un déversement accidentel pourrait 
causer de graves dommages.

Gaz/Liquides inflammables

Le matériel électronique ne doit jamais être utilisé en présence de gaz ou de liquide inflammable ; cela 
pourrait entraîner une explosion ou un grave incendie.

Fumée/odeurs inhabituelles

Si vous constatez la présence de fumée ou d’odeurs inhabituelles émanant de votre ordinateur, 
éteignez-le et débranchez le système de l’alimentation secteur. Dans ce cas, le système devra être 
confié à un technicien qualifié pour inspection. Une poursuite de son utilisation risquerait de provoquer 

des blessures corporelles et des dommages matériels. 

Entretien

L’entretien doit impérativement être effectué par des techniciens compétents, toute carte enfichable 

Datapath physiquement endommagée est à retourner à Datapath pour réparation via la procédure 
Datapath RMA.

Sicherheitsanweisungen (D)

Die folgenden Sicherheitsanweisungen dienen der Vermeidung von Schäden an Ihrem Datapath-

Produkt und Verletzungen der Nutzer. Bitte lesen Sie sie sorgfältig durch, bevor Sie Ihr Produkt in 

Betrieb nehmen. Diese Anweisungen sollten allen Personen zugänglich gemacht werden, die mit der 

Nutzung und der Bedienung von Datapath-Produkten betraut sind.

Stromversorgung

Alle Datapath-Produkte müssen an die Hauptstromversorgung angeschlossen werden. Die Stromver-

sorgung muss unterbrochen werden, wenn Geräte ausgetauscht oder an einer anderen Stelle platziert 

werden sollen. 

Kabel

Kabel dürfen nicht mit Flüssigkeiten in Berührung kommen, da dadurch ein Kurzschluss und somit ein 

Schaden an dem Gerät ausgelöst werden könnte. Stellen Sie außerdem keine schweren Objekte auf 

die Kabel, um Schäden und offen liegende stromführende Leitungen zu vermeiden.

Lüftung

Computerausrüstung sollte in einem gut gelüfteten Bereich aufgestellt werden. Die Lüftungslöcher 

am Computergehäuse müssen stets freigehalten werden, um eine Überhitzung und somit einen 

Geräteschaden zu vermeiden.

Arbeitsumgebung

Die Geräte sollten in einer staubfreien und trockenen Umgebung, in der keine extremen Tempera-

turänderungen zu erwarten sind, auf einer stabilen Arbeitsfläche aufgestellt werden. In der Nähe der 

Geräte sollten keine Flüssigkeiten (heiße/kalte Getränke etc.) platziert werden, die verschüttet werden 

und schwerwiegende Schäden anrichten könnten.

Gas/brennbare Flüssigkeiten

Elektronische Geräte sind nicht in Umgebungen zu verwenden, in denen Gas oder brennbare Flüs-

sigkeiten vorhanden ist/sind und somit Brand- und Explosionsgefahr besteht.

Rauch/ungewöhnliche Gerüche

Schalten Sie das System aus und trennen Sie es von der Hauptversorgung, wenn von Ihrem Computer 

Rauch ausgeht oder dieser ungewöhnliche Gerüche abgibt. Lassen Sie das System anschließend von 

einem qualifizierten Techniker prüfen. Bei fortgeführtem Betrieb besteht die Gefahr von Verletzungen 

und Sachschäden. 

Wartung

Wartungsarbeiten sollten nur von qualifizierten Technikern durchgeführt werden. Physisch be

-

schädigte Plug-in-Karten von Datapath sollten zur Reparatur unter Einsatz der RMA-Verfahren von

En caso de percibir humo u olores inusuales provenientes de su ordenador, apagar y desenchufar el 

equipo de la red eléctrica.  El sistema debe ser confiado entonces a un técnico cualificado para su 
inspección.  Si el equipo continuara funcionando, esto podría ocasionar lesiones personales y daños 

materiales. 

Mantenimiento 

El mantenimiento solo debe ser ejecutado por técnicos capacitados. Las tarjetas insertables (plug-in) 

de Datapath que estén físicamente dañadas deben ser devueltas a Datapath para su reparación según
