2.1 Precautions
zBefore cleaning the S1505L, pull out its power adapter. Do
not clean the S1505L with wet cloth or liquid.
zDo not place the S1505L near water or in a damp area. And
prevent water or moisture from entering the S1505Lchassis.
zKeep the working environment of the S1505L clean, for
dusty environment may cause electrostatic adsorption,
which may not only shorten the life of the device, but also
incur communication failures.
zThe S1505L use air cooling approach for they just generate
a small amount of heat. Reserve more than 10 cm (4 in.) of
clearance around the S1505L for heat dissipation.
zMake sure that the supply voltage is consistent with that
labeled on the S1505L. It is strongly recommended that you
use the power adapter accompanying the S1505L for the
power supply.
zKeep the S1505L far away from powerful radio transmitters,
radars and high-frequency devices working in high current.
zTake electromagnetic shielding measures if necessary. For
example, you can adopt shielded interface cable.
zWire the interface cable indoors (outdoor wiring is not
permitted) to prevent the signal ports of the device from
damage due to over-voltage and over-current caused by
thunder.
