To Prevent Accidents
• Since the HDD unit is a precision instrument, be sure it is neither hit by nor
pressed strongly against another object. After unpacking, be sure the unit is not
dropped or jolted during installation. Also, a PL built in to a larger unit (i.e. opera-
tion panel) should be removed and packed separately prior to shipping.
• Be sure water, liquids or metal particles are not allowed to enter the HDD unit.
Any of these may cause either a breakdown or an electrical shock.
• Do not place or store this unit in a location where there is direct sunlight, exces-
sive heat, dust or vibration.
• Do not store or operate this unit near chemicals, or where there are chemical
fumes.
• Do not allow anyone other than Pro-face’s own service staff to perform mainte-
nance or adjustments to this unit.
• Do not move or shift the PL while the HDD unit is installed and the PL unit's
power is ON.
• Do not use the HDD unit in locations where corrosive gasses are present, since
they can lead to a hard disk breakdown.
• To prevent damage to file data, be sure to shut down the PL unit's OS before
turning OFF the main power.
• To prevent HDD memory leaks, restart the OS periodically.
• In order to extend the lifetime of the hard disk, Pro-face recommends you set the
Windows [Control panel]-[Power Management option]-[Turn off hard disks]
selection to turn the hard disk off when the unit is not being operated. A setting of
5 minutes is recommended.
• Be sure to check that the PL’s power is disconnected before
installing the unit, in order to prevent an electrical shock.
• Do not attempt to modify or open the HDD unit, since it can
cause a shock or fire.
• When installing the HDD unit, be sure to read the following “2.
Installation” section’s information completely to insure that the
unit is correctly installed.
