Conventions The following typographical conventions are used throughout this manual:
Bullet lists provide information, but not procedural steps.
Numbered lists represent procedures with sequential steps.
An indented typeface like the one below:
Key information in
indicates words and characters you key in. Unless otherwise
mentioned, you can use either upper or lower case.
The names of the keys you should press are placed inside of
square brackets, and appear just as they do on the keyboard (for

You should type the word Install, then press the Enter key.
If you need to hold down one key and, while you are holding it
down, press another key, the keys appear in square brackets with a
dash between them. For example, [Ctrl-Alt-Del] means to hold
down the Ctrl and Alt keys and, while they are being held down,
press the Del key and then release all the keys together.

Safety Instructions xiii
Safety Instructions
Before handling the RMVS-1U.XXXX keyboard monitor drawer, read the
following instructions and safety guidelines to prevent damage to the product
and to ensure your own personal safety. Refer to the “Advisories” section for
advisory conventions used in this manual, including the distinction between
Warnings, Cautions, and Notes.
Do not remove any of the covers. Only qualified, experienced,
authorized electronics service personnel should access the interior of
the computer. The power supplies produce high voltages and energy
hazards, which can cause bodily harm.
Do not use the drawer near water. Do not place any liquids (even a
wet or damp cloth) on or near the drawer. Liquids create an electrical
hazard. Do not expose the drawer to rain or moisture.
Installation Precautions
In addition, take note of these installation precautions when appropriate:
When you disconnect the power cable from the socket, pull on the plug
not the cord.
To help prevent electric shock, connect the power cable to a properly
wired and grounded power source. Do not use adapter plugs or remove
the grounding prong from the cable.
Always connect any equipment used with the drawer to properly
wired and grounded power sources. Be sure to tighten all connector
screws.
Reliable earthing of this equipment must be maintained. Particular
attention should be given to supply connections when connecting to
power strips, rather than direct connections to the branch circuit.
Do not connect or disconnect this product during an electrical storm.
WARNING
To avoid the risk of severe electric shock, do not remove
the cover or back of the monitor. There are no user
serviceable parts inside. Refer all servicing to Kontron
Technical Support.

Do not place any object on the cables that might cause the cables to
make sharp bends or that affect the integrity of the cables. Be sure
that cables are not located where they can be stepped on or tripped
over.
Route all wiring and cabling away from heat sources and sharp metal
edges to avoid damage.
Keep drawer away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Hot air may
cause damage to the cabinet and other parts.
Install the drawer in a well-ventilated area. Do not block ventilation
slots and openings with objects.
Do not allow metal pieces or objects of any kind to fall into the
ventilation holes. Keep the ventilation holes and openings clean.
Vacuum openings if you notice dirt accumulating on them.
Handle the drawer with care. The display contains glass parts.
Dropping the drawer may cause the glass parts to break.
To help protect the drawer from sudden, transient increases and
decreases in electrical power, use a surge suppressor, line conditioner,
or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to
the supply circuit and the effect that circuit overloading might have on
overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration
of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this
concern.
The ambient temperature within the rack may be greater than room
ambient. Installation should be such that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation is not compromised. Consideration should
be given to the maximum rated ambient.
Installation should be such that a hazardous stability condition is not
achieved due to uneven loading.
