Handle all sensitive components in a static-safe area. If possible, use
•
antistatic floor pads and workbench pads.
Handle the device carefully, holding it by its edges or its frame.
•
• Do not touch solder joints, pins, or exposed printed circuitry.
Do not leave the device where others can handle and possibly damage the
•
device.
Take additional care when handling devices during cold weather, because
•
heating reduces indoor humidity and increases static electricity.
Before installing IP/TV Server in a rack, review the following guidelines:
• Two or more people are required to install the device in a rack.
Ensure that the room air temperature is below 95°F (35°C).
•
Do not block any air vents; usually 6 inches (15 cm) of space provides proper
•
airflow.
Plan the device installation starting from the bottom of the rack.
•
Install the heaviest device in the bottom of the rack.
•
Do not extend more than one device out of the rack at the same time.
•
Remove the rack doors and side panels to provide easier access during
•
installation.
Connect the IP/TV Server to a properly grounded outlet.
•
• Do not overload the power outlet when installing multiple devices in the rack.
Do not place any object weighing more than 110 lb (50 kg) on top of
•
rack-mounted devices.
