Firefly Safety Requirements

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:

The following safety instructions apply to the Visual Circuits Firefly:

1.Read and follow all warning notices and instructions marked on the product or included in this manual. Opening or removing covers and/or components may expose you to dangerous high voltage points or other risks. Qualified personnel should perform all servicing.

2.The maximum ambient temperature for the Firefly is 114 degrees Fahrenheit (45 degrees Celsius). Care should be given to allow sufficient air circulation or space between units when Firefly is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly because the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment must be greater than room ambient temperature.

3.Slots and openings in the cabinet (chassis) are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating, maintain a minimum of 1-inch (2.5-cm) clearance on the top and sides.

4.Installation of the Firefly in a rack without sufficient airflow can be unsafe.

5.If installed in a rack, the rack should safely support the combined weight of all equipment it supports. A fully loaded Firefly weighs 4 pounds (1.5 kg).

6.The connections and equipment of the Firefly should be capable of operating safely with the maximum power requirements of the Firefly. In the event of a power overload, the supply circuits and supply wiring should not become hazardous.

7.External power supply AC power inputs are intended to be used with the three-wire grounding type plug (a plug that has a grounding pin). This is a safety feature. Equipment grounding is vital to ensure safe operation.

Do not defeat the purpose of grounding type plugs by modifying the plug or using an adapter.

8.If a three-wire grounding type power source is not available, consult a qualified electrician to determine another method of grounding the equipment.

9.Install only in restricted areas in accordance with Articles 110-16, 100-17 and 110-18 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.

10.Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord and do not locate the product where persons will walk on or come in contact with the power cord.
