ReadiManager SE200 Getting Started Guide

Electrical Safety Precautions

To ensure electrical safety, follow these guidelines:

•Find the power switch for the appliance, and the room's emergency power-off switch, disconnection switch, or electrical outlet. If an electrical accident occurs, shut off power quickly.

•Do not work alone when working with high-voltage components.

•Use rubber mats that supply electrical insulation.

•The power-supply power cords must include a grounding plug. Connect them into grounded electrical outlets only.

Rack-Mount Safety Precautions

To ensure rack-mount safety, follow these guidelines:

•Find a good location for the equipment rack. Choose a clean, dust-free, area with good airflow near a grounded power outlet. Avoid areas with high-levels of heat, electrical noise, or electromagnetic discharge.

•Fully extend the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack to the floor, so the full weight of the rack rests on them.

•In a single-rack installation, attach stabilizers to the rack.

•In multiple-rack installations, couple the racks together.

•Make sure the rack is stable before you extend a component from the rack.

•You should extend only one component at a time. If you extend two or more components at the same time, the rack can become unstable.

•Install the heaviest components on the bottom of the rack first, and then work up.

•Use a regulating, un-interruptible power supply (UPS) to protect the system from power surges, voltage spikes, and power failures.

•Let the power supply cool before you touch it.

•To let the components cool adequately, keep the rack's front door and all panels and components on the systems closed, except during maintenance.
