Installation Procedure 21
Set up requirements
Only use the XG700 under the temperature, humidity and other environmental conditions
specified in "A.2 Installation Specifications (P.36)". Using the XG700 outside the following
ranges can shorten the lifetime or cause the failure of the XG700.
Temperature (5 - 40°C)
Humidity (20 - 80%RH)
When installing the XG700 in a rack, note the following.
• Certain types of racks cannot be used. To check whether the XG700 can be installed in a
given rack, contact the vendor's service department.
CAUTION
• Remember that when an installed unit is operating, the temperature inside the rack
will be higher than the external ambient temperature, particularly if the rack contains multiple units. The rack's internal ambient temperature should not be allowed
to exceed the maximum ambient temperature specified for each installed unit. The
maximum ambient temperature allowed for the XG700 is 40°C.
• A certain amount of air is required for the XG700 to operate safely. Make sure that
adequate ventilation is provided and that the front and rear air vents are not
obstructed.
• Be careful that the rack is able to supply sufficient power for all the installed units.
To avoid overloading the rack, check the power requirements specified for the
each installed unit. The power requirement of the XG700 is 0.07KVA.
• Installing the XG700 in a rack may cause the entire rack to become unstable. To
avoid this, fix the rack to the wall or floor as appropriate.
• Check that all the installed units are correctly grounded. Special care should be
taken if the unit's power supply is not drawn directly from the distribution board
(such as when a power strip is used, for example). When multiple devices are connected to a single power strip, the combined leakage currents can overwhelm the
grounding capacity of the power strip.

Insert the plug at the other end of the power cord into the power strip or wall socket.
WARNING
• Unplug the XG700 during thunder-storms. Continued use under these conditions
risks lightning damage to the XG700, and may cause a fire.
• When you remove a power plug from its outlet, be sure to pull the only power plug
itself. Pulling on the power cord itself may expose the cores or break the cord, and
cause electric shock or fire.
• Insert the power plug completely into the power socket. Using the XG700 with a
half inserted power plug may cause a fire or damage.
• If the XG700 is to be left unused for any significant period, remove the power plug
from the outlet for safety reasons. Failure to do so may cause a fire or damage.

3-2Hardware Problems
This section explains what should be done when a fan, temperature, power supply, or memory
error occurs. Contact the vendor's service department when the following errors occurred.
Fan error
When a problem is detected with a fan, the front panel Alarm LED lights up in orange, the
LED of the fan unit in which the error has occurred lights up in orange, and an error is
recorded in the event log. If a fan error occurs, contact the vendor's service department.
Temperature error
When XG700 overheats, the Alarm LED lights up in orange, and a temperature error is
recorded in the event log. In this case, check that the ambient and internal rack temperatures
are within the specified temperature range, adjust them if they are not and try turning the
XG700 back on. When error occurs even though the ambient rack temperatures are acceptable, turn the XG700 off and contact the vendor's service department.
Voltage error
When a voltage problem is detected, the Alarm LED lights up in orange, and an error is
recorded in the event log. In this case, turn the XG700 off and contact the vendor's service
department.
3
Power supply error
When a power supply problem is detected, the Alarm LED lights up in orange, the power fail
LED of the power unit in which the error has occurred lights up in orange, and an error is
recorded in the event log. Verify that the AC power supply for the failed power unit is normal
and the cable has not come loose.
If some other reason has caused the power fail LED to light up, contact the vendor's service
department.
Memory error
Startup diagnostic tests are run after the power is turned. If a memory error is detected at this
stage, the Alarm LED blinks, but an event log entry is not created. If a memory error is
detected during operation, an event log entry is created and the system automatically
reboots. Note that whether or not a memory error results in an event log entry is a matter of
timing.
If memory errors occur repeatedly, contact the vendor's service department.
