•Do not use the terminal outdoors.

CAUTION The terminal is not waterproof or dustproof, and is intended for indoor use only. Any damage to the unit from exposure to rain or dust may void any warranty.

Electrical •

Considerations •

•

Avoid using this product during electrical storms.

Avoid locations near electrical appliances or other devices that cause excessive voltage fluctuations or emit electrical noise (for example, air conditioners, electric motors, neon signs, high-frequency or magnetic security devices, or computer equipment).

Do not use the terminal near water or in moist conditions.

Unpacking the

Shipping Carton

To unpack the Shipping Carton
