The product has been built and tested according to the basic safety requirements for low voltage (LVD) applications and has left the manufacturer in safety-related, flawless condition. To maintain this condition and also to ensure safe operation, the operator must not only observe the correct operating conditions for the product but also the following general safety instructions:

 The product must be used as specified in the product documentation, in which the instructions for

safety for the product and for the operator are described. These contain guidelines for setting up, installation and assembly, maintenance, transport or storage.

 The on-site electrical installation must meet the requirements of the country's specific local

regulations.

 If a power cable comes with the product, only this cable should be used. Do not use an extension

cable to connect the product.

 To guarantee that sufficient air circulation is available to cool the product, please ensure that the

ventilation openings are not covered or blocked. If an air filter is provided, this should be cleaned regularly. Do not place the system close to heat sources or damp places. Make sure the system is well ventilated.

 Only devices or parts which fulfill the requirements of SELV circuits (Safety Extra Low Voltage) as

stipulated by IEC 60950-1 may be connected to the available interfaces.

 Before opening the device, make sure that the device is disconnected from the mains.

 Switching off the device by its power button does not disconnect it from the mains. Complete

disconnection is only possible if the power cable is removed from the wall plug or from the device. Ensure that there is free and easy access to enable disconnection.

 The device may only be opened for the insertion or removal of add-on cards (depending on the

configuration of the system). This may only be carried out by qualified operators.

 If extensions are being carried out, the following must be observed:

• All effective legal regulations and all technical data are adhered to.

• The power consumption of any add-on card does not exceed the specified limitations.

• The current consumption of the system does not exceed the value stated on the product label.

 Only original accessories that have been approved by Kontron can be used.

 Please note: safe operation is no longer possible when any of the following applies:

• The device has visible damages.

• The device is no longer functioning.

In this case the device must be switched off and it must be ensured that the device can no longer be operated.

FusionClient – User Guide (Rev. 1.3)

Additional Safety Instructions for DC Power Supply Circuits

 To guarantee safe operation of devices with DC power supply voltages larger than 60 volts DC or a

power consumption larger than 240 VA, please observe that:

• The device is set up, installed and operated in a room or enclosure marked with “RESTRICTED ACCESS”, if there are no safety messages on product as safety signs and labels on the device itself.

• No cables or parts without insulation in electrical circuits with dangerous voltage or power should be touched directly or indirectly.

• A reliable protective earthing connection is provided.

• A suitable, easily accessible disconnecting device is used in the application (e.g. overcurrent

protective device), if the device itself is not disconnectable.

• A disconnect device, if provided in or as part of the equipment, shall disconnect both poles simultaneously.

• Interconnecting power circuits of different devices cause no electrical hazards.

 A sufficient dimensioning of the power cable wires must be selected – according to the maximum

electrical specifications on the product label – as stipulated by EN60950-1 or VDE0100 or EN60204 or UL508 regulations.

 The devices do not generally fulfill the requirements for “centralized DC power systems“ (UL 60950-1,

Annex NAB; D2) and therefore may not be connected to such devices!

1.1. Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)

A sudden discharge of electrostatic electricity can destroy static-sensitive devices or micro-circuitry.

Therefore proper packaging and grounding techniques are necessary precautions to prevent damage. Always take the following precautions:

Transport boards in ESD-safe containers such as boxes or bags.

Keep electrostatic sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at the ESD-safe workplace.

Always be properly grounded when touching a sensitive board, component, or assembly.

Store electrostatic-sensitive boards in protective packaging or on antistatic mats.

1.1.1. Grounding Methods

By adhering to the guidelines below, electrostatic damage to the device can be avoided:

Cover workstations with approved antistatic material. Always wear a wrist strap connected to

workplace. Always use properly grounded tools and equipment.

Use antistatic mats, heel straps, or air ionizers for more protection.

Always handle electrostatically sensitive components by their edge or by their casing.

Avoid contact with pins, leads, or circuitry.

Turn off power and input signals before inserting and removing connectors or connecting test

equipment.

FusionClient – User Guide (Rev. 1.3)

4.1. RTC (GoldCap)

The baseboard of the FusionClient provides an “external RTC” module connected via the I2C Bus. An RTC module of type RV-8564 or compatible is used. To provide a valid date and time when no power is connected to the system, the RTC module is equipped with a GoldCap buffer.

4.1.1. RTC Buffer Time

The RTC buffer time is depending of the ambient temperature. For a better understanding of the differing behavior of the GoldCap buffer integrated in your system, refer to the diagram below:

Figure 2: RTC buffer time depending on temperature

If the time is not valid this is indicated by a status bit in the RTC registers. For details see the RV-8564 application manual.

To get the maximum buffer time, it is necessary to have the system for at least 1

day powered on. This ensures that the buffer capacitors are fully loaded. The buffer time depends on the ambient temperature and on how long the system

is connected to the power supply.

FusionClient – User Guide (Rev. 1.3)

www.kontron.com // 27

4.1.2. RTC Buffer Aging

The RTC Buffer aging is depending of the temperature over the device life time. For a better understanding of the differing behavior of the GoldCap buffer integrated in your system, refer to the diagram below:

6.2.2. DC Power Connection

Please observe the safety requirements given in chapter 1/ “General Safety Instructions for IT Equipment”.

The system must be connected only to a LPS (Limited Power Supply) DC mains

power supply complying with the requirements of EN 60950-1. It must be ensured that the system can be powered ON and OFF via a readily accessible two-pole disconnecting device that shall be incorporated in the building installation wiring. It must be UL-listed and correspond to the required current and voltage for the FusionClient (refer to the type label).

The system is only completely disconnected from the DC power source, when the DC power cord is disconnected either from the power source or the unit. Therefore, the DC power cord and its connectors must always remain easily accessible.

Ensure that a short-circuit (overcurrent) protection, is provided as part of the building installation. Install only in accordance with national and local wiring regulations.

When you install or replace the system the ground connection must always be made first and disconnected last.

We recommend that the power cable should be the last cable attached to the system.

To connect the FusionClient to a corresponding DC main power supply, please perform the following steps:

The wires used for power connections must be clearly marked (+/-/grounding) to ensure that they

will be proper connected to the DC connector of the FusionClient and to the main power source, corresponding the signals marked (refer to Figure 13).

FusionClient – User Guide (Rev. 1.3)

www.kontron.com // 55

Ensure that the DC power source is switched off via a disconnecting device (circuit breaker), in order

to ensure that no power is flowing from the external DC power source during the connection procedure.

Connect at first the wire for the grounding stud” (Figure 12, pos. 11) to an appropriate “common earth”

connection point.

Connect the Phoenix power terminal prepared as described in subsection 6.1.1 ”Cabling” to the DC

input connector (Figure 12, pos. 1, marked X1) of the FusionClient. The DC input connector is located on the front side and is marked “24 VDC”.

Connect the other ends of the DC power wires to the connections of the DC main power supply. Pay

attention to the polarity of the connections.

6.3. Operating System and Hardware Component Drivers

Your system can be supplied optionally with a pre-installed operating system.

If you have ordered your FusionClient with a pre-installed operating system, all drivers are installed in accordance with the system configuration ordered (optional hardware components). Your system is fully operational when you power it on for the first time.

If you have ordered the FusionClient without a pre-installed operating system, you will need to install the operating system and the appropriate drivers for the system configuration you have ordered (optional hardware components) yourself.

You can download the relevant drivers for the installed hardware from our web

site at www.kontron.com

by selecting the product.

Pay attention to the manufacturer specifications of the operating system and the integrated hardware components.

6.4. System Self Protection against Ambient Overheating

The FusionClient system is designed to be protected against ambient overheating.

During operation the system will initialize automatic shutdown (emulation of short press of the power botton, if the internal temperature reaches the limit of 83°C (measured on the internal temperature sensor). This could happen if the ambient temperature around the system exceeds (e.g. because of external reasons) the maximum specified ambient temperature of 50°C. In case that the internal temperature reaches limit of 85°C (measured on the internal temperature sensor), the system will perform an emergency turn off. In case of emergency turn off the running applications will not be closed properly (because of the device’s turn off).

What happens after such automatic shutdown or emergency turn off?

The system should cool down until the internal temperature decrease below: 80°C. The FusionClient system turns on automatically and performs a system start as soon as the internal temperature decreases to 80 °C.

Please observe that as long as the internal temperature is too high:

 the color of the power LED (Figure 12, pos. 10 and Figure 14, pos. 2) on the bottom side of the system

indicates the current power state and signalizes the emergency state of the system (refer to subsection 4.4.3.2 “Table 5”).

Please observe that as long as the internal temperature is too high, the color of

this LED stays permanently red.

 the function of the power buttons is deactivated.

 the settings in BIOS Setup/Advanced/South Cluster Configuration/Miscellaneous Configuration/State

after G3 –S0 State with option settings: Power on (default)/ Power off) will also be ignored.

When the system is turned off via the self protection against ambient overheating

function, any unsaved data will be lost. [The system is powered off immediately (like a “forced off” via power button) and enter into 5-volt standby mode as long as the internal temperature is too high.]
