Appendix B: Safety Information

Safety Precautions

Please follow the safety precautions described below when installing and operating the SLC advanced console manager.

Cover

Do not remove the cover of the chassis. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Opening or removing the cover may expose you to dangerous voltage that could cause fire or electric shock. The exception is access to the internal modem and RTC battery. For these you don't have to remove the chassis cover, but just the battery modem door.

Refer all servicing to Lantronix.

Power Plug

When disconnecting the power cable from the socket, pull on the plug, not the cord.

Always connect the power cord to a properly wired and grounded power source. Do not use adapter plugs or remove the grounding prong from the cord.

Only use a power cord with a voltage and current rating greater than the voltage and current rating marked on the SLC unit.

Install the SLC 8000 advanced console manager near an AC outlet that is easily accessible.

Always connect any equipment used with the product to properly wired and grounded power sources.

To help protect the product from sudden, transient increases and decreases in electrical power, use a surge suppressor, line conditioner, or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).

Do not connect or disconnect this product during an electrical storm.

Input Supply

Caution: Disconnect all power supply sources before servicing to avoid electric shock.

Check nameplate ratings to assure there is no overloading of supply circuits that could affect over current protection and supply wiring.

Grounding

1.Maintain reliable grounding of this product.

2.Pay particular attention to supply connections when connecting to power strips, rather than directly to the branch circuit.

Fuses

For protection against fire, replace the power-input-module fuse with the same type and rating.
