WARNING - PREVENT ACCESS TO HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE CABLE Apply the protective cap (delivered with the HV and HVHV products) on the power cable, according to the illustrated steps below. To prevent accidentally pulling out wires, make sure the power cable and the wires are firmly attached to the protective cap.
To insert the micro SD card correctly, turn the gold plated pins upwards. Figure 5. Insertion of micro SD card 3.4.5. SFP Transceivers The product supports UL and Westermo labelled SA-approved transceivers only. See Westermo's modular transceivers datasheets 100 Mbit and 1 Gbit for SA-approved RedFox 5728 Series...
