Safety Requirements
This product of Fastwel Group Co. Ltd has been developed and tested with the purpose of
ensuring its compliance with electrical safety requirements. Its design provides long-term trouble-
free functioning. The product service life can be significantly shortened because of its incorrect
handling during unpacking and installation. Therefore, for your safety and ensuring of the correct
operation of the product you should adhere to the recommendations given below.
High Voltage Safety Rules
Any work with this device must be performed only by sufficiently skilled personnel.
Before installing the board into your system, make sure that the mains power supply is
disconnected. This is also true for the installation of expansion boards.
There is a serious hazard of electrocution in the process of the product installation, repair
and maintenance; therefore, always unplug the power cord during work performance. This is also
true for other power cables.
Board Handling Instructions
Electronic boards and their components are static sensitive. Therefore, special attention is
needed to ensure safety and normal operation while handling those devices.
Do not leave the board without protective package when it does not operate.
Always work with the board on static-safe workplaces if possible. If it is impossible, the
user must remove static charge from him/herself before touching the product with
his/her hands or tools. This is best done by touching a metal part of the system body.
It is especially important to observe precaution while replacing expansion boards,
jumpers, etc. Since there is a battery powering memory and real-time clock on the
board, do not put it on conductive surfaces, like antistatic carpets or sponges. They
may cause a short circuit and inflict damage to the battery and the board conductors,
as well as loss of real-time clock (RTC) data.
