Chapter 2 – Installation

2.1 Electro-Static Discharge Warning

Important:

Please take full E.S.D. precautions if it is necessary at any time to come into contact with any circuit boards, components or connectors. Electrostatic discharge can damage the components used in the RamSan and its interfaces.

2.2 Battery Warning

The internal batteries in the RamSan-320 are charged with enough voltage to power a fully loaded system for approximately 30 minutes. However, the batteries may not be fully charged when you install your system. Therefore, ensure that your batteries are fully charged before you use the system where there is risk of power failure.

The following battery charge times apply to a fully loaded RamSan-320: With one hour of charge time, the batteries provide nine minutes of runtime. With two hours of charge time, the batteries provide 17 minutes of runtime. With three hours of charge time, the batteries provide 20 minutes of runtime.

As a precaution, replace the RamSan’s batteries every two years. To obtain spare or new batteries for your RamSan, contact Texas Memory Systems.
