Sa ety In ormation

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

• To reduce the risk o electric shock, disconnect the power cable be ore relocating or servicing the

system.

• When adding or removing devices to or rom the system, ensure that the power cables or the

devices are unplugged be ore the signal cables are connected. I possible, disconnect all power

cables rom the existing system be ore you add a device.

• Be ore connecting or removing signal cables rom the motherboard, ensure that all power cables are

unplugged.

• Seek pro essional assistance be ore using an adapter or extension cord. These devices could

interrupt the grounding circuit.

• Make sure that your power supply is set to the correct voltage in your area. I you are not sure about

the voltage o the electrical outlet you are using, contact your local power company.

• I your power supply is not unctioning, do not attempt to repair it. Contact a quali ied service

technician or your retailer.

OPERATIONAL SAFETY

• Be ore installing the carrier card or connecting devices to it, care ully read any and all provided

manuals or the devices in question.

• Be ore using the product, make sure all cables are correctly connected and the power cables are

not damaged. I you ind any damage, contact your dealer immediately.

• To avoid short circuits, keep paper clips, screws, staples, and other oreign metallic objects away

rom connectors, slots, sockets and circuitry.

• Avoid dust, humidity, and temperature extremes. Do not locate the product in any area where it may

become wet or damp.

• Place the product on a stable sur ace at all times.

• I you encounter technical problems with the product, contact a quali ied service technician or your

retailer.

Notices

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION STATEMENT

This device complies with Part 15 o the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the

ollowing two conditions:

• This device may not cause harm ul inter erence, and

• This device must accept any inter erence received including inter erence that

may cause undesired operation.

This equipment has been tested and ound to comply with the limits or a Class

B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 o the FCC Rules. These limits are designed

to provide reasonable protection against harm ul inter erence in a residential

installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio requency energy

and, i not installed and used in accordance with manu acturer’s instructions, may

cause harm ul inter erence to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee

that inter erence will not occur in a particular installation. I this equipment does

cause harm ul inter erence to radio or television reception, which can be determined

by turning the equipment o and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the

inter erence by one or more o the ollowing measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit di erent rom that to which the

receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician or help.

ENVIRONMENTAL DISPOSAL STATEMENTS

DO NOT throw the system or its components in municipal waste. This product has been designed to

enable proper reuse o parts and recycling. This symbol o the crossed out wheeled bin indicates that

the product (electrical and electronic equipment) should not be placed in municipal waste. Check local

regulations or disposal o electronic products.

DO NOT throw the mercury-containing button cell battery in municipal waste. This

symbol o the crossed out wheeled bin indicates that the battery should not be

placed in municipal waste.

System Overview

DESIGN

The Arctic Tern module has been speci ically designed or applications requiring high security, small

orm actor, and minimal power requirements. Multiple modules may be connected together or

enhanced unctionality, using the on-board SERDES links. The AT1PEC1 carrier card allows up to

two modules to be installed, although most on-card eatures will unction with only the irst module

installed.

Module Installation and Removal

MODULE INSERTION

Modules are inserted at an angle, then rotated downward into the socket latches in the same manner

as standard SODIMM memory modules. Module 1 must be installed be ore Module 2 (i applicable)

due to mechanical inter erence between the two modules during the installation process.

To install, irst gently insert the module at an approximate 45 degree angle to the carrier card as

shown. The module must be ully inserted to the hard stop, otherwise it will not latch during the

second part o the installation process.

Once inserted, care ully but irmly press the module lat toward the carrier card. Use your thumbs and

press on the upper two corners o the module during this process. Installation is complete once the

latches engage and the module no longer attempts to return to an angled position away rom the

carrier card.
