1-4. SAFETY AND NOTIFICATION
Following messages are safety reminders on how to protect your systems from damages. And thus,
helps you lengthen the life cycle of the system.
1. Check the Line Voltage
a. The operating voltage for the power supply should cover the range of AC
100V~240V , otherwise the system may be damaged.
2. Environmental Conditions
a. Place your FPC 7915 on a sturdy , level surface.
Be sure to allow enough room on each side to have easy access. b. Avoid extremely hot or cold
places to install your PPC.
c. A void exposure to sunlight for a long period of time (for example in a closed car in summer time.
Also avoid the system from any heating device.). Or do not use FPC 7915 when it's been left outdoors in a cold winter day .
d. Bear in mind that the operating ambient temperature is from 0°C up to +40°C.
e. A void moving the system rapidly from a hot place to a cold place or vice versa because condensa-
tion may come from inside of the system.
f. Place FPC 7915 against strong vibrations, which may cause hard disk failure.
g. Do not place the system too close to any radio active device. Radioactive device may cause inter-
ference.

3. Handling
a. A void putting heavy objects on top of the system.
b. Do not turn the system upside down. This may cause the floppy drive and hard drive to mal-function.
c. Do not remove the diskette from the Floppy drive while the light is still on.
If you remove the diskette while the light is on, you may damage the information on the diskette.
4. Good Care
a. When the outside of the case is stained, remove the stain with neutral washing agent with a dry
cloth.
b. Never use strong agents such as benzene and thinner to clean the system.
c. If heavy stains are present, moisten a cloth with diluted neutral washing agent or with alcohol and
then wipe thoroughly with a dry cloth.
d. If dust has been accumulated on the outside, remove it by using a special made vacuum cleaner for
computers.

2-3. HOW TO SET THE JUMPERS
Y ou can configure your board by setting jumpers. Jumper is consists of two or three met al pins with a
plastic base mounted on the card, and by using a small plastic "cap", Also known as the jumper cap
(with a metal contact inside), you are able to connect the pins. So you can set-up your hardware
configuration by "open" or "close" pins.
The jumper can be combined into sets that called jumper blocks. When the jumpers are all in the block,
you have to put them together to set up the hardware configuration. The figure below shows how this
looks like.
JUMPERS AND CAPS
If a jumper has three pins (for examples, labelled PIN1, PIN2, and PIN3), Y ou can connect PIN1 & PIN2
to create one setting and shorting. Y ou can either connect PIN2 & PIN3 to create another setting. The
same jumper diagrams are applied all through this manual. The figure below shows what the manual
diagrams look and what they represent.
