Environmental Specifications
Environmental Specifications
The control unit requires a regulated environment and can be
located in any room or closet that is temperature-controlled and
clean. Do not mount the control unit where it will be exposed to
direct sunlight.
In addition, the control unit should not be co-located with air
conditioning or ventilation units, compressors, fans and blowers,
heaters, arc welders, or other machinery that produces electrical
interference.
The control unit is mounted on a Lucent Technologies pre-drilled
backboard.
Once installed, it is important to keep the control unit site clear of
hazards, such as stacked paper or boxes, that block ventilation.
Installing any machinery in the vicinity of the control unit should be
avoided. If any pollution-producing work (such as sanding or spray
painting) is to be done in the area, care should be taken to protect
the unit.
The following table gives the environmental specifications for the
control unit.
