Safety Notes
This section provides warnings that precede potentially dangerous procedures throughout
this manual. Instructions contained in the warnings must be followed during all phases of
operation, service, and repair of this equipment. You should also employ all other safety
precautions necessary for the operation of the equipment in your operating environment.
Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual
could result in personal injury or damage to the equipment.
Artesyn intends to provide all necessary information to install and handle the product in this
manual. Because of the complexity of this product and its various uses, we do not guarantee
that the given information is complete. If you need additional information, ask your Artesyn
representative.
This product is a Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) device designed to meet the EN60950-1
requirements for Information Technology Equipment. The use of the product in any other
application may require safety evaluation specific to that application.
Only personnel trained by Artesyn or persons qualified in electronics or electrical engineering
are authorized to install, remove or maintain the product.
The information given in this manual is meant to complete the knowledge of a specialist and
must not be used as replacement for qualified personnel.
Keep away from live circuits inside the equipment. Operating personnel must not remove
equipment covers. Only Factory Authorized Service Personnel or other qualified service
personnel may remove equipment covers for internal subassembly or component replacement
or any internal adjustment.
Do not install substitute parts or perform any unauthorized modification of the equipment or
the warranty may be voided. Contact your local Artesyn representative for service and repair
to make sure that all safety features are maintained.
EMC
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial
environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if
not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications.

Safety Notes
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which
case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense. Changes or
modifications not expressly approved by Artesyn Embedded Technologies could void the
user's authority to operate the equipment. Board products are tested in a representative
system to show compliance with the above mentioned requirements. A proper installation in
a compliant system will maintain the required performance. Use only shielded cables when
connecting peripherals to assure that appropriate radio frequency emissions compliance is
maintained.
Operation
Product Damage
High humidity and condensation on the board surface causes short circuits.
Do not operate the board outside the specified environmental limits.
Make sure the board is completely dry and there is no moisture on any surface before applying
power.
Damage of Circuits
Electrostatic discharge and incorrect installation and removal can damage circuits or shorten
their life.
Before touching the board or electronic components, make sure that you are working in an
ESD-safe environment.
Board Malfunction
Switches marked as “reserved” might carry production-related functions and can cause the
board to malfunction if their setting is changed.
Do not change settings of switches marked as “reserved”. The setting of switches which are
not marked as “reserved” has to be checked and changed before board installation.

Installation
Data Loss
Powering down or removing a board before the operating system or other software running
on the board has been properly shut down may cause corruption of data or file systems.
Make sure all software is completely shut down before removing power from the board or
removing the board from the chassis.
Product Damage
Only use injector handles for board insertion to avoid damage to the front panel and/or PCB.
Deformation of the front panel can cause an electrical short or other board malfunction.
Product Damage
Inserting or removing modules with power applied may result in damage to module
components.
Before installing or removing additional devices or modules, read the documentation that
came with the product.
Safety Notes
Cabling and Connectors
Product Damage
RJ-45 connectors on modules are either twisted-pair Ethernet (TPE) or E1/T1/J1 network
interfaces. Connecting an E1/T1/J1 line to an Ethernet connector may damage your system.
Make sure that TPE connectors near your working area are clearly marked as network
connectors.
Verify that the length of an electric cable connected to a TPE bushing does not exceed 100
meters.
Make sure the TPE bushing of the system is connected only to safety extra low voltage
circuits (SELV circuits).
If in doubt, ask your system administrator.
