If you have any doubts about the line cord for use with your IMX8, please contact a qualified electrician or
instrument service technician for assistance. He or she can perform a simple continuity check that can verify
the connection of the IMX8 chassis to earth and thereby check the safety of your IMX8 installation.

Temperature and Ventilation

Your IMX8 Multiplexer was designed to operate at ambient temperatures between 0°C and 40°C.
Caution:
within the enclosure must not exceed 40°C. You may need to provide ventilation holes or even forced air
cooling for the enclosure if the temperature rises excessively.
