For safety, use a multimeter to measure the resistance between yourself and the ground, which should be within the
range from 1 Ωto 10 Ω.
Make sure that the device is properly grounded when the anti-static wrist strap is connected to the ground through
the chassis jack.
2.2 Installation Site Requirements
RG-WALL1600-S3100 must be used in the room. This series of products are desktop devices, so they can be placed in
non-machine-room or mounted into a rack with the support of a tray. To ensure normal operation and a prolonged use life
of the equipment, the installation site must meet the following requirements.
2.2.1 Non-machine-room Installation Requirements
Please ensure that the rack meets the following requirements before installing the RG-WALL1600-S3100 in
non-machine-room.
Install the device in open space if possible. If it is installed in closed space, please make sure that there is a good
ventilation system.
Ensure that the supporting body is firm enough to support the device and its accessories.
For ventilation, ensure that there is enough space left between the supporting body and the front panel as well as the
supporting body and the back panel.
Place the device far from an office desk. Because ventilators are on the top of the chassis, avoid damages to the
device caused by dust retention or water sprays.
2.2.2 Rack Mounting Requirements
To mount the RG-WALL1600-S3100 in a cabinet, verify that the cabinet meets the following conditions:
Install the device in an open cabinet as much as possible. If you install the device inside a closed cabinet, be sure
that the cabinet has a good ventilation and heat dissipation system.
Be sure that the cabinet is firm enough to bear the weight of the RG-WALL1600-S3100 and its installation
accessories.
Be sure that the dimensions of the cabinet is appropriate for installation of the RG-WALL1600-S3100 that can
reserve a certain space for the front, back, left and right panels for heat dissipation.
The cabinet should be properly grounded.
2.2.3 Ventilation Requirements
Figure 2-1 shows the ventilation requirements of the RG-WALL1600-S3100. Keep the device Allow at least 3.8 cm of
clearance around the ventilation openings. After connecting various cables, you should bundle the cables or place them in
the cabling rack to avoid blocking air inlets.
2.2.4 Temperature and Humidity Requirements
To ensure the normal operation and a prolonged use life of the RG-WALL1600-S3100, you must maintain an appropriate
temperature and humidity in the equipment room. Too high or low temperature and humidity for a long period of time may
damage the equipment.
In an environment with high relative humidity, the insulating material may have bad insulation or even leak electricity,
and sometimes the materials may suffer from mechanical performance change and metallic parts may get rusted.
On the other hand, in an environment with low relative humidity, the insulating strip may dry and shrink, and static
electricity may occur easily and endanger the circuit on the equipment.
In an environment with high temperature, the equipment is subjected to even greater harm, as its performance may
degrade significantly and its useful life may be shortened in the case of long-term exposure that expedites the aging
process.
Temperature and humidity requirements of the RG-WALL1600-S3100
The ambient temperature and humidity are measured at the point that is 1.5m above the floor and 0.4m before the
equipment when there is no protective plate in front or back of the equipment rack.
