1 About this manual
This user manual will explicitly describe the hardware installation and the software configuration,
provides installers and users the necessary information to setup and configure the system.
1.1 Firmware version
Version
v2.41
1.2 Notice signs
** The above warning is located on the back of the unit.
Explanation of Graphical Symbols
The equipment or the property can be damaged,
or persons can be lightly injured if the alert is
not observed.
To alert the user to the presence of uninsulated
“dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure
that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a
risk of electric shock to persons.
1.3 Safety instructions
Do not expose the device to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, humidity, or dust, which could
cause fire or electrical shock hazard.
Keep away water or other liquids from the device. Otherwise fire or electrical shock may result.
Connect the power cord only to an AC outlet of the type stated in this manual or as marked on the
unit. Otherwise fire and electrical shock hazard results.
When disconnecting the power cord from an AC outlet always grab the plug. Never pull the cord. A
damaged power cord is a potential risk of fire and electrical shock hazard.
Avoid touching power plugs with wet hands. Doing so is a potential electrical shock hazard.
Take care for correct polarity when operating the device from a DC power source. Reversed polarity
may cause damage to the unit or the batteries.
Avoid placing heavy objects on power cords. A damaged power cord is a fire and electrical shock
hazard.
Do not cut, scratch, bend, twist, pull, or heat the power cord. A damaged power cord is a fire and
electrical shock hazard. Ask your ATEÏS dealer for replacement.
Turn off the unit immediately, remove the power cord from the AC outlet and contact your ATEÏS
dealer in any of the following circumstances, if you continue using the device, fire and electrical

shock may result.
oSmoke, odor, or noise getting out of the unit.
oForeign objects or liquids get inside the device.
oThe unit has been dropped or the shell is damaged.
Do not drop or insert metallic objects or flammable materials into the unit as this may result in fire
and electrical shock.
Do not remove the device's cover, as there are exposed parts inside carrying high voltages that
may cause an electrical shock. Contact your ATEÏS dealer if internal inspection, maintenance or
repair is necessary.
Do not try to make any modifications to the device. This is a potential fire and electrical shock
hazard.
Avoid the device's ventilation slots to be blocked. Blocking the ventilation slots is a potential fire
hazard.
To prevent the unit from falling down and causing personal injury and/or property damage, avoid
installing or mounting the unit in unstable locations.
Leave enough space above and below the unit to provide good ventilation of the device. If the airflow
is not adequate, the device will heat up inside and may cause a fire.
Operate the device in an environment with a free-air temperature of between -5°C ~ +55°C (+23°F
~ +131°F).
Turn off all audio equipment when making any connections to the device, and make sure to use
adequate cables.
Do not use benzene, thinner or chemicals to clean the device. Use only a soft, dry cloth.
If the device is moved from a cold place (e.g., overnight in a car) to a warmer environment,
condensation may form inside the unit, which may affect performance. Allow the device to
acclimatize for about one hour before use.
