2–2
Installing Your System
Do not place the system unit on its side. Blocking the air vents can
cause the system unit to overheat.
• Connect your system to a dedicated grounded circuit.
If you have several pieces of equipment that need to be plugged into
a power outlet, use a grounded power strip. Many power strips come
with an on/off switch and a surge protector.
Do not exceed the voltage requirement of the circuit.
• To avoid damaging equipment that has been moved inside from a cold
environment, let the equipment warm to room temperature before you
turn it on.
Unpacking
The InfoServer 100 system is shipped in two boxes, one for hardware and
one for software. The larger box contains the InfoServer 100 hardware
with accessories and documentation. The smaller box contains the
software compact discs with licenses and instructions.
Figure 2–1 shows the hardware components shipped for the InfoServer
system. Check the contents of the cartons against the shipping list
provided. Expansion devices are packed in separate cartons (‘‘Unpacking
An Expansion Box’’, Chapter 4).
NOTE
Depending on how you set up your system, you may not use all the
components supplied with your system. Store any unused parts
safely for future use.
If You Move the System . . .
Always repack the system unit in its original packing material when
moving or relocating your system. This precaution will protect the
hardware from damage.
