Choosing a Location
Before you set up your Equity IIe, it’s important to choose a
comfortable, convenient location where it can run properly.
Select a location that provides the following:
A large, sturdy desk or table that can easily support the
weight of your system, including all its components.
A flat, hard surface. Soft surfaces like beds and carpeted
floors attract static electricity, which can erase data on your
disks and damage the computer’s circuitry. Soft surfaces also
prevent proper ventilation.
Good air circulation. Air must be able to move freely under
the system as well as behind it. Leave several inches of space
around the computer to allow ventilation.
Moderate environmental conditions. Protect your computer
from extremes in temperature, humidity, dust, and smoke.
Avoid direct sunlight or any other source of heat. High
humidity also hinders operation, so select a cool, dry area.
Appropriate power sources. To prevent static charges,
connect all your equipment to three-prong, 120-volt
grounded outlets. You need one outlet for the computer, one
for the monitor, and additional outlets for a printer and any
other peripherals. You can plug one peripheral into the
auxiliary power outlet on the back panel of the Equity IIe,
reducing the number of wall outlets you need.
No electromagnetic interference. Locate your system away
from any electrical device, such as a telephone, that
generates an electromagnetic field.
