• The lightning ash with arrowhead
symbol within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user of the presence
of uninsulated “dangerous voltage”
within the product’s enclosure that may
be of su󰀩cient magnitude to constitute
a risk of electric shock to persons. The
exclamation point within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the user of
the presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the product (i.e.
this Quick Start Guide).
• CAUTION: To prevent electric shock,
do not use the polarized plug supplied
with the device with any extension cord,
receptacle, or other outlet unless the
prongs can be fully inserted.
• Power Source: This Symetrix hardware
uses a universal input supply that
automatically adjusts to the applied
voltage. Ensure that your AC mains
voltage is somewhere between 100-240
VAC, 50-60 Hz. Use only the power
cord and connector specied for the
product and your operating locale. A
protective ground connection, by way of
the grounding conductor in the power
cord, is essential for safe operation. The
appliance inlet and coupler shall remain
readily operable once the apparatus has
been installed.
• User Serviceable Parts: There are no
user serviceable parts inside this Symetrix
product. In case of failure, customers
inside the U.S. should refer all servicing to
the Symetrix factory. Customers outside
the U.S. should refer all servicing to an
authorized Symetrix distributor. Distributor

Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void
the user’s authority to operate the equipment under FCC rules.

Canada technical specifications CS-03 Part I for terminal equipment
and related access arrangements intended for direct connection
to analogue wireline facilities and DC-01(E) for the declaration
of conformity and registration of terminal equipment. The Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN) is an indication of the maximum number of
devices allowed to be connected to a telephone interface. The REN for
the Analog Telephone Interface (ATI) card is two. The termination of
an interface may consist of any combination of devices subject only to
the requirement that the sum of the REN’s not exceed two per ATI card.
Multiple ATI Cards may be installed to increase the REN for a system.

ESD Warning
This product can be damaged by electrostatic discharge
(ESD). When handling, care must be taken so that the
devices are not damaged. Damage due to inappropriate
handling is not covered by the warranty.
The following precautions must be taken:
• Do not open the protective conductive packaging until
you have read the following, and are at an approved
anti-static work station.
• Use a conductive wrist strap attached to a good earth
ground.
• Always discharge yourself by touching a grounded bare
metal surface or approved anti-static mat before picking
up an ESD-sensitive electronic component.
• Use an approved anti-static mat to cover your work
surface.
Card Removal and Installation
Once you are properly grounded, follow this sequence of
steps to properly set-up and congure the Symetrix AEC
Coprocessor Module in your Radius NX 4x4 or Radius NX
12x8 hardware.
First, make sure the unit is powered down. Next, you must
remove the two rack ears and the lid. To do this, remove the
6 Phillips head screws from the rack ears and the 3 Phillips
head screws from the rear of the frame. Lift the lid up using
the two tabs in the rear of the lid.
If your Radius NX 4x4 or Radius NX 12x8 unit has an AEC
Coprocessor Module installed, unscrew and remove it
by removing the two stainless steel Phillips head screws
located on the top of the card. Gently pull the card up to
disconnect the two 50-pin connectors. The card is no longer
attached to the frame. Carefully remove the card from the
chassis.
To install a new module, align and feed the connectors on
the AEC Coprocessor Module and align the screw holes
in the card with the stando󰀨s on the motherboard. Look
through this hole and align with the stando󰀨 and then,
carefully, apply an even downward pressure until you feel
the card seat into the 50-pin sockets. Use the two stainless
steel screws provided and mount the board to the stando󰀨.
Do not over tighten these screws. The 50-pin connectors on
the Symetrix AEC Coprocessor Module should not be under
any tension when properly installed.
Finally, replace the lid and rack ears.
