Laser Compliance

All Lasers are certified in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of DHHS 21 CFR Subchapter J for class 1 laser products. Outside the U.S., they are certified to be in compliance with the IEC 825 (first edition 1984) and as a class 1 laser product. Consult the label on each part for laser certification numbers and approval information.

Laser Safety Information

CAUTION:

This product may contain a CD-ROM which is a class 1 laser product. (RSFTC240)

CAUTION:

All IBM laser modules are designed so that there is never any human access to laser radiation above a class 1 level during normal operation, user maintenance, or prescribed service conditions. Data processing environments can contain equipment transmitting on system links with laser modules that operate at greater than class 1 power levels. For this reason, never look into the end of an optical fiber cable or open receptacle. Only trained service personnel should perform the inspection or repair of optical fiber cable assemblies and receptacles. (RSFTC243)

Product Recycling and Disposal

Components of the system, such as structural parts and circuit cards, can be recycled where recycling facilities exist. IBM does not currently collect and recycle used IBM products from customers in the United States other than those products that are involved in trade-in programs. Companies are available to disassemble, reutilize, recycle, or dispose of electronic products. Contact an IBM account representative for more information.

The system unit contains batteries and circuit boards with lead solder. Before you dispose of this unit, these batteries and circuit boards must be removed and discarded according to local regulations or recycled where facilities exist. This book contains specific information on each battery type where applicable.

Battery Return Program

In the United States, IBM has established a collection process for reuse, recycling, or proper disposal of used IBM batteries and battery packs. For information on proper disposal of the batteries in this unit, please contact IBM at 1-800-426-4333. Please have the IBM part number that is listed on the battery available when you make your call. For information on battery disposal outside the United States, contact your local waste disposal facility.

Environmental Design

The environmental efforts that have gone into the design of the system signify IBM’s commitment to improve the quality of its products and processes. Some of these accomplishments include the elimination of the use of Class I ozone-depleting chemicals in the manufacturing process, reductions in manufacturing wastes, and increased product energy efficiency. For more information, contact an IBM account representative.

5078, 5079, 578, 5074 specifications

The IBM 5074, 578, 5079, and 5078 are part of IBM's influential line of midrange computer systems that emerged during the late 1970s and early 1980s. These models were pivotal in the evolution of business computing at a time when companies were increasingly adopting automated systems for data processing tasks.

The IBM 5074, also known as the IBM 5100 Series, was particularly notable for being one of the first portable computers, offering a versatile computing environment for both technical and business applications. It featured an impressive combination of hardware and software capabilities, including a built-in keyboard, a screen, and the ability to run various programming languages. Both APL and BASIC were readily available, making it a popular choice for developers and mathematicians alike.

The 578 model was an advanced variant of the 5074, emphasizing enhanced performance and expanded memory capacity. The 578 integrated more sophisticated I/O capabilities, which included diverse connection options for external devices. This system was geared toward small and medium enterprises requiring robust computing power without the complexities of mainframe management.

The IBM 5079, on the other hand, distinguished itself with its unique multi-user capabilities, allowing for simultaneous access by multiple users. This built-in support for multitasking made it a formidable tool in office environments where collaboration and efficient resource sharing were paramount. Its operating system was designed to optimize performance across various applications, facilitating smoother operations in busy work environments.

Lastly, the IBM 5078 served as a bridge between traditional minicomputers and the growing demand for microcomputing solutions. It included critical innovations in processing speed and data handling capabilities, allowing businesses to better manage their operations. With a focus on reliability and uptime, the 5078 was engineered for critical business functions that demanded robust performance in a pragmatic package.
