Safety Summary

The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation,

service and repair of this product. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific

warnings elsewhere in this manual violates safety standards of design, manufacture and

intended use of the product. Solacom assumes no liability for the customer’s failure to

comply with these requirements.

Ground the equipment

To minimize shock hazard, the equipment switch must be connected to an electrical

ground. The equipment has a three-conductor AC power cable. This power cable

must be plugged into an approved three-contact electrical outlet with the grounding

wire (green) firmly connected to an electrical ground at the power outlet. The power

cables meet International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) safety standards.

Keep away from live circuits

Operating personnel must not remove modules or otherwise tamper with the

equipment switch or related components. Component replacement and internal

adjustments must be made by qualified maintenance personnel. Do not replace

components with the power cable connected. To avoid injuries, always disconnect

power and discharge circuits before removing equipment shelves or making major

modifications.

Do not service or adjust alone

Do not attempt major component replacement, internal service or adjustment unless

another person, capable of rendering first aid and resuscitation, is present.

Replacement of modules

Replacement of modules should be performed by qualified maintenance personnel.

(Those who have been trained and certified by Solacom.)

Electrostatic discharge (ESD)

This product contains components that can be damaged by electrostatic discharge.

You must take precautions when handling modules. As a minimum precaution, use

grounded wrist straps at all times when handling modules.

Do not modify the product

Do not install, substitute parts or modify the product. Contact an authorized Sales

and Service Office for service and repair to ensure that product integrity is

Power surge advisory

Electrical surges (typically lightning transients) are very destructive to customer

terminal equipment connected to AC power sources. We recommend that the

customer install an AC surge arrestor in the AC outlet to which the equipment is

connected.
