Workplace Conditions, Main Characteristics
• Excessive cold and heat should be avoided, as should humidity and dust.
• Direct exposure to sunlight should be avoided, as well as other heat sources. The device should not be placed
amongst papers, magazines or other elements that could block natural air circulation.
• The device should not be placed very close to strong electromagnetic fields such as speakers, engines, etc.
• Knocks and/or strong vibrations should be avoided during transport, operation and storage.
Warning
The electric current in power cables, telephone lines and communication cables is dangerous. To pre-
vent electric shocks, before installing, handling or opening the equipment covers, connect and discon-
nect the cables following the steps set forth in
Connecting
on page 17 and
Disconnecting
on page 17.
3.4.1 Internal Power Source
To connect the power cable to the device, carry out the steps set forth in section
Connecting
on page 17.
Warning
To avoid electric shocks, residual current circulation and other unwanted effects, also affecting commu-
nications, the following is recommended:
All interconnected communication devices should be plugged to THE SAME GROUNDED POWER
OUTLET, which should at the same time be of good quality (lower than 10 ohms).
Whether the workplace is provided with an uninterrupted power supply system (UPS), regulated supply
or whether it is independent from the rest (such as lighting, etc.); it is highly recommended that all data
devices should be connected to the same power source. This will avoid operating issues and prema-
ture aging problems of drivers and other components.
3.4.1.1 Connecting
• Ensure that the on/off power supply switch is in the OFF position.
• Connect all data cables.
• Connect the power supply to the device.
• Place the device’s on/off power supply switch in the ON position.
3.4.1.2 Disconnecting
• Place the on/off power supply switch in the OFF position.
• Disconnect the power supply from the device.
• Disconnect the data cables.
Fig. 28:
Connecting the power
To connect the power source to the device, follow the steps listed in the earlier table: ensure that the switch is OFF
(0) and the power supply is NOT connected to the main electricity supply; find the POWER plug (located on the rear
panel of the device) and plug it into the power source using the grounded cable that is supplied for this purpose.
