Safety Approvals
CE Marking
FCC Class A
FCC Compliance
This equipment has been tested in compliance with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are meant to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. If not installed and used in
accordance with proper instructions, this equipment might generate or radiate radio frequency
energy and cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following methods:
1. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
2.. Connect the equipment to another outlet of a circuit that doesn’t connect with the receiver.
3. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Shielded interface cables must be used in order to comply with the emission limits.

iv
Safety Precautions
Before getting started, please read the following important safety precautions.
1. The DSB320-842 series does not come equipped with an operating system. An
operating system must be loaded first before installing any software into the
computer.
2. Be sure to ground yourself to prevent static charge when installing the internal
components. Use a grounding wrist strap and place all electronic components
in any static-shielded devices. Most electronic components are sensitive to
static electrical charge.
3. Disconnect the power cord from the DSB320-842 series before any installation.
Be sure both the system and external devices are turned OFF. A sudden surge
of power could ruin sensitive components that the DSB320-842 series must be
properly grounded.
4. Make sure it is the correct voltage of the power source before connecting the
equipment to the power outlet.
5. The brightness of the flat panel display will be getting weaker as a result of
frequent usage. However, the operating period varies depending on the
application environment.
6. The digital signage player is not susceptible to shock or vibration. When
assembling the DSB320-842 series, make sure it is securely installed.
7. Do not leave this equipment in an uncontrolled environment where the storage
temperature is below 0℃or above 40℃. It may damage the equipment.
8. External equipment intended for connection to signal input/out or other
connectors shall comply with relevant UL/IEC standard.
9. Do not open the back cover of the system. If opening the cover for
maintenance is a must, only a trained technician is allowed to do so. Integrated
circuits on computer boards are sensitive to static electricity. To avoid
damaging chips from electrostatic discharge, observe the following precautions:
Before handling a board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted portion of
the system unit chassis for a few seconds. This will help to discharge any
static electricity on your body.
When handling boards and components, wear a wrist-grounding strap,
available from most electronic component stores.

v
Scrap Computer Recycling
If the computer equipments need the maintenance or are beyond repair, we strongly
recommended that you should inform your Axiomtek distributor as soon as possible
for the suitable solution. For the computers that are no longer useful or no longer
working well, please contact your Axiomtek distributor for recycling and we will
make the proper arrangement.
