4.1 Safety Information
WARNING! / AVERTISSEMENT!
Always completely disconnect the power cord from your chassis whenever you
work with the hardware. Do not make connections while the power is on.
Sensitive electronic components can be damaged by sudden power surges.
Only experienced electronics personnel should open the PC chassis.
Toujours débrancher le cordon d’alimentation du chassis lorsque vous travaillez
sur celui-ci. Ne pas brancher de connections lorsque l’alimentation est présente.
Des composantes électroniques sensibles peuvent être endommagées par des
sauts d’alimentation. Seulement du personnel expérimenté devrait ouvrir ces
chassis.
CAUTION/ATTENTION
Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching the CPU
card. Modern electronic devices are very sensitive to static electric charges. As
a safety precaution, use a grounding wrist strap at all times. Place all electronic
components in a static-dissipative surface or static-shielded bag when they are
not in the chassis.
Toujours verifier votre mise à la terre afin d’éliminer toute charge statique avant
de toucher la carte CPU. Les équipements électroniques moderns sont très
sensibles aux décharges d’électricité statique. Toujours utiliser un bracelet de
mise à la terre comme précaution. Placer toutes les composantes
électroniques sur une surface conçue pour dissiper les charge, ou dans un sac
anti-statique lorsqu’elles ne sont pas dans le chassis.
4.2 Wiring Requirements
The following common safety precautions should be observed before installing any electronic
device:
Strive to use separate, non-intersecting paths to route power and networking wires. If
power wiring and device wiring paths must cross make sure the wires are perpendicular
at the intersection point.
Keep the wires separated according to interface. The rule of thumb is that wiring that
shares similar electrical characteristics may be bundled together.
Do not bundle input wiring with output wiring. Keep them separate.
When necessary, it is strongly advised that you label wiring to all devices in the system.
Do not run signal or communication wiring and power wiring in the same conduit. To
avoid interference, wires with different signal characteristics (i.e., different interfaces)
should be routed separately.
Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or wiring your device.
Verify the maximum possible current for each wire gauge, especially for the power
cords. Observe all electrical codes dictating the maximum current allowable for each
wire gauge.
If the current goes above the maximum ratings, the wiring could overheat, causing
serious damage to your equipment.
Be careful when handling the unit. When the unit is plugged in, the internal components
generate a lot of heat which may leave the outer casing too hot to touch.
