Follow the instructions in the appropriate section in "13. Cleaning the Rack Console" when
you clean this device.
Keep this manual handy for reference with the device at all times. If you give the device to
a third party, give the third party this manual as well.
Do not use the device as a stepladder or lean against the device with it drawn out. Doing
so may unbalance the rack, causing it to fall over.
Some components of the device (such as LCD, etc.) have a limited service life. In cases of
extended continuous use, these components will need early replacement.
The estimated period for reliable use of the device (service life) is 5 years. [Note] This
period is estimated under assumption of a usage pattern of 8 hours a day, 200 hours a
month, at an ambient temperature of 25°C. This service life (5 years) does not apply for
some limited life components.
The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
6. Rack Mount Instructions
Elevated Operating Ambient – If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the
operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient.
Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment
compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
Reduced Air Flow – Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount
of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
Mechanical Loading – Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a
hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit Overloading – Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to
the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent
protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings
should be used when addressing this concern.
Reliable Earthing – Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.
Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to
the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).
Slide/rail mounted equipment is not to be used as a shelf or a work space.
7. Moving the Rack Console
When you move the Rack Console to a different location, use the box
in which it was purchased, or another box to protect it from damage. Do
not unpack the Rack Console before you finish moving the Rack
Console.
