NCR 7870 manual About Site Preparation

3-4 Chapter 3: Site Preparation

About Site Preparation

This chapter contains the information necessary for the preparation of a site conforming to NCR specifications. It is very important that the site complies with the requirements in this document because, once the equipment has been installed, deficiencies in site preparation or the problems caused by these deficiencies are much more difficult to detect or correct. Further, failure to comply with these requirements or to take proper steps to protect equipment against risks identified in this document may cause serious damage to the equipment and to the customer’s business.

In addition to the need to comply with the requirements specified, electrical wiring and mechanical systems must also comply with all relevant codes, laws, and regulations.

It is important that the site be prepared by a customer or a customer agent who is fully conversant with the special requirements of electronic equipment. The responsibility of ensuring that the site is prepared in compliance with this document remains with the customer.

For information and guidance purposes only, a list is provided, in general terms, of these matters for which the customer is responsible. This list is not intended to be comprehensive, and in no way modifies, alters, or limits the responsibility of the customer for all aspects of adequate site preparation.

NCR staff is available to answer questions relating to the contents of this document, but except where:

a)the customer has been notified that a full or partial consultancy service is available and/or that NCR is willing to undertake a preliminary or final site survey and

b)the customer shall have entered into a formal contract with NCR for provision of the same.
