Security Warning

When connecting to the network, be aware of security-related problems. See the examples of Security

measures below and set up the product properly along with the network devices.

[Information security risks]

- Unauthorized access from the outside through a network could cause the system halt, data damage, or

exposure to malware

*1

.

- Invaded and used as a stepping stone, a device might attack the others through networks.

(a victim becomes an assailant)

- Information might leak without realizing due to the connection to the network.

- Secondary damages such as harmful rumors, liability in damages, social credibility fall, and

opportunity loss are expected led by the troubles described above.

*1… Malware (Malicious Software) is software that brings harm to a computer system and performs unintended operations.

[Security measures - e.g.]

- Do not keep using the default password. (Refer to the product manual for the password setting).

- Set a strong password.

⇒Combined with upper and lowercase letters, and numbers so that it cannot be easily analogized

by others.

- Change the password periodically.

- Disable unnecessary network services and functions.

- Restrict access to the network with network devices.

*2

- Restrict ports to be released on the network with network devices.

- Create a closed network connection using such as dedicated network or VPN

*3

.

*2…Inquire for setting procedure to manufacturers.

*3…VPN (Virtual Private Network): a secured network that wards off unauthorized access by protecting the communication path with

authentication and encryption.

Unfortunately, there are no perfect ways to avert unauthorized access or close a security hole that are

endlessly found day and night. Please understand that risks are always involved with the Internet

connection, and we strongly recommend a user should constantly update information security

measures.

Power Management Features

- Support ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface)

- ACPI v5.0 compliant

- Support hardware automatic wake-up

Power Requirements

Your system requires a clean, steady power source for reliable performance of the high frequency CPU

on the product, the quality of the power supply is even more important. For the best performance makes

sure your power supply provides a range of 10.8 V minimum to 31.2 V maximum DC power source.

Power Consumption

For typical configurations, the CPU card is designed to operate with at least a 150W power supply. The

power supply must meet the following requirements:

- Rise time for power supply: 2 ms - 30 ms

The following table lists the power supply’s tolerances for DC voltages:

Installation Requirements

There are limits to the ambient temperature range depending on the installation orientation.

Be sure that the operating temperature is within the range specified in the installation environment

requirement by making space between the product and device that generates heat or exhaust air.

During natural air cooling

Installable directions at operating temperature 0 - +50°C : (1), (2), (3)

Installable directions at operating temperature 0 - +45°C : (4), (5)

During forced air cooling

Installable directions at operating temperature 0 - +60°C : All type of installation

Figure 3.2. Installation Orientation

Note that even if the ambient temperature is within the usage range, if devices that generate high

temperatures are near the main unit, it may become hot due to the effect of the radiated heat and

may consequently exhibit poor operation.
