Preparing for use Setting up the server
Setting up the server
CAUTION!
!
When installing your server, give consideration to the recommendations and safety notes
in the "Safety" booklet.
Set up the server only in its correct orientation. The points to observe are illustrated on the
following pages.
We recommend that you place your device on a surface with good anti-slip qualities. In
view of the multitude of different finishes and varnishes used on furniture, it is possible that
the rubber feet will mark the surface they stand on.
Do not expose the server to extreme environmental conditions (see "Technical data"
chapter). Protect it from dust, moisture and heat.
Provide at least 200 mm of clearance in front of, to the left of, and behind the ventilator
area of the server to ensure adequate ventilation. In order to avoid overheating, do not
cover the ventilation area of the monitor or the server.
Do not place several servers one above the other.
Connect the monitor, mouse and keyboard
The ports for the monitor, mouse, and keyboard are on the rear of the server (see "Ports on the
server" section).
Connecting the monitor
Ê Follow the instructions contained in the monitor manual to prepare the monitor for operation
(e.g. connecting cables).
