Safety Precaution
SAFETY PRECAUTION
Please read instructions before attempting to install or operate this equipment.
Please keep the following in mind as you unpack and install this equipment:
Always follow basic safety precautions to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, and injury.
l
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the unit to rain, moisture or install this product near water.
l
Never spill liquid of any kind on or into this product.
l
Where possible, install the matrix towards the top of the rack to avoid the unit overheating.
l
Only use the supplied IEC cable.
l
Never push any objects into this product through any openings or empty slots in the unit as you may damage
l
parts inside.
Do not allow anything to rest on the power cabling and avoid putting weight of any kind on it.
l
To protect the unit from overheating do not block any vents or openings in the unit housing that provides vent-
l
ilation. Allow sufficient space for air to circulate around the unit.
Ventilation
It's important when installing a Pulse-Eight video or audio matrix to keep the products ventilated.
Video and audio matrices will generate heat. A well-ventilated area helps to disperse the heat. If placed in a poorly vent-
ilated area, your equipment may heat up and cause minor irreparable damage to the circuitries. Allowing systems to
run for prolonged periods under high temperatures will break down circuitry and chipset. This also applies if the device
is left in the path of direct sunlight or near any heat source.
Dust tends to accumulate, and this will disrupt the fan and electronics system. Dust particles contain various com-
positions such as water, oil and other minerals or chemicals. Having them in your electronic device can sometimes
cause a signal error or degradation to various chips and circuitries. Because we cannot accurately predict how or when
they can affect your device, we highly recommend that you keep Pulse-Eight products not only in a well-ventilated area
but also as clean as possible.
In very rare cases, certain insects or reptiles can make nests near or inside the electronic casing. Whilst we design our
products to maximise the protection of the internal circuitry please be aware that insects and reptiles are drawn to these
types of habitats. . I n the unlikely event this does happen, this will lead to poor ventilation inside the unit, and it will be
unable to disperse heat.
Finally, whenever possible, do not stack audio and video matrices together. Leave enough space in between each unit
in order to provide good airflow.
