Aviom MH10f, MH10m manual AC Power, AC Line Conditioning, Rack Mounting

AC Power

Always plug the unit into a properly grounded (earthed) outlet. Always use the AC line cord that was shipped with the unit. Grasp the power cable by the connector and never by the cord itself when connecting and disconnecting it from the power source.

Do not expose the Pro64 device to moisture, rain, or excessively damp environments.

AC Line Conditioning

Aviom products are digital devices and as such are sensitive to sudden spikes and drops in the AC line voltage. Changes in the line voltage from lightning, power outages, etc. can sometimes damage electronic equipment.

To minimize the chance of damage to your equipment from sudden changes in the AC line voltage, you may want to plug your equipment into a power source that has surge and spike protection. Power outlet strips are available with built-in surge protection circuits that may help protect your equipment.

Other options for protection of your equipment include the use of an AC line conditioner or a battery backup system (sometimes referred to as an uninterruptible power supply, or UPS).

Rack Mounting

Pro64 products are designed to be mounted in a 19-inch equipment rack. The rack ears on each side of the device are designed to support the weight of the product without additional hardware. Each rack ear contains holes for two screws per side. Always support the unit with all four screws to avoid damage to the unit.

To rack mount the Pro64 product, position it in the equipment rack at the desired location. Use standard rack-mounting screws (10-32 size) to attach the unit to your rack hardware. Tighten all four screws firmly, but avoid overtightening.

Aviom suggests the use of non-metallic washers between the rack- mounting screws and the device’s finished surface to avoid marring the finish on your Aviom products.
