Setting up the Embedded Box PC
WARNING: During the installation of the Embedded Box PC, the
responsible party or integrator must use the power adapter provided
with the Embedded Box PC, or connect to a 12-26 VDC separate
power source already present as part of the clients installation. Always
ensure that the available power source matches the required input
power of the Embedded Box PC. Check the input power markings next
to power connector(s) before making connections.
WARNING: Before you begin any of the procedures in this section,
read the safety information that shipped with your Embedded Box PC.
For additional best practices information, go to www.dell.com/
regulatory_compliance.
WARNING: To ensure that the protection provided by the Embedded
Box PC is not impaired, do not use or install the Embedded Box PC in
any manner other than what is specified in this manual.
WARNING: To provide additional power connections to the main
network, use cables appropriate for the load currents such as, 3-core
cable rated 15 A at 90°C (194°F) minimum, which conform to either
IEC 60227 or IEC 60245. The Embedded Box PC accepts cables from
0.8 mm to 2.5 mm (18 AWG to 14 AWG).
WARNING: The symbol indicates hot surface or adjacent hot
surface that can obtain temperature during normal use that can cause
a burn. Allow equipment to cool off or use protective gloves when
handling to reduce risk of a burn.
WARNING: This product is designed for specific applications and must
be installed by qualified personnel with RF and regulatory related
knowledge. The general user must not attempt to install or change the
setting.
WARNING: Before installation, the two power inputs (Terminal Block
or Power Jack) must be protected by 20 A fuses or circuit-breakers,
which are over current protection devices in front of the Embedded
Box PC.
10
WARNING: The product shall be installed at a location where the
radiating antenna is kept 20 cm away from nearby persons in its
normal operating condition to meet regulatory RF exposure
requirements.
WARNING: Use only the antenna(s), which are approved by Dell.
WARNING: Connect a certified SELV power to either Phoenix
connector or the Barrel connector only. The connection of two power
sources may damage equipment and present risk of fire.
WARNING: If your equipment or accessories are provided with a
detachable main supply cord set and has to be replaced, ensure that
the replacement cord set has an adequate voltage, current, and
temperature rating for the country where the equipment is installed.
The cord set must comply to the local safety code, regulations, and
law.
1 Install the Embedded Box PC on a vertical surface like a wall using wall-
mount brackets or in a panel box.
