2.1 Anti-static Precautions
WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during installation
may result in
permanent damage to the PUZZLE-M801 and severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the PUZZLE-M801. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is
therefore critical that whenever the PUZZLE-M801 or any other electrical component is
handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.
Wear an anti-static wristband: Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can
help to prevent ESD from damaging the board.
Self-grounding: Before handling the board, touch any grounded conducting
material. During the time the board is handled, frequently touch any
conducting materials that are connected to the ground.
Use an anti-static pad: When configuring the PUZZLE-M801, place it on an
anti-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the
PUZZLE-M801.
2.2 Unpacking Precautions
When the PUZZLE-M801 is unpacked, please do the following:
Follow the anti-static precautions outlined in Section 2.1.
Make sure the packing box is facing upwards so the PUZZLE-M801 does not
fall out of the box.
Make sure all the components shown in Section 2.2 are present.

3.1 Installation Precautions
During installation, be aware of the precautions below:
Read the user manual: The user manual provides a complete description of
the PUZZLE-M801, installation instructions and configuration options.
DANGER! Disconnect Power: Power to the PUZZLE-M801 must be
disconnected during the installation process. Failing to disconnect the power
may cause severe injury to the body and/or damage to the system.
Qualified Personnel: The PUZZLE-M801 must be installed and operated
only by trained and qualified personnel. Maintenance, upgrades, or repairs
may only be carried out by qualified personnel who are familiar with the
associated dangers.
Air Circulation: Make sure there is sufficient air circulation when installing
the PUZZLE-M801. The PUZZLE-M801’s cooling vents must not be
obstructed by any objects. Blocking the vents can cause overheating of the
PUZZLE-M801. Leave at least 5 cm of clearance around the PUZZLE-M801
to prevent overheating.
Grounding: The PUZZLE-M801 should be properly grounded. The voltage
feeds must not be overloaded. Adjust the cabling and provide external
overcharge protection per the electrical values indicated on the label attached
to the back of the PUZZLE-M801.
