Safety Instructions

To prevent damage to your Radian Video Wall Processor product or injury to personnel operating the

equipment, please read the following safety precautions prior to operation. These instructions should be made

available to all who will use and operate Radian Video Wall Processor products.

Power Supply

All Radian Video Wall Processor products require a power supply. This power supply must be disconnected

when equipment is being upgraded or relocated.

Cables

Do not expose cables to any liquids; doing so may cause a short circuit, which could damage the equipment.

Do not place heavy objects on top of any cables, because this can cause damage and possibly lead to exposed

live wires.

Ventilation

All computer equipment should be located in a well ventilated area. Keep all ventilation holes on the computer

casing clear of any obstruction at all times. Failure to do so will result in the system overheating and damaging

your equipment.

Working Environment

Locate the equipment in an environment free from dust, moisture, and extreme changes in temperature and

place it on a stable and solid work surface. Do not place liquids (hot/cold drinks etc) near the equipment

because spillage could cause serious damage.

Gas/Flammable Liquids

Never use electronic equipment in the presence of gas or any flammable liquid, doing so could result in an

explosion or serious fire.

Smoke/Unusual Smells

If you notice smoke or unusual smells being emitted from your computer, turn it off and unplug the system

from the power supply. The system should then be passed to a qualified technician for inspection. Continued

operation could result in personal injury and damage to property.

Maintenance

Only competent technicians should perform maintenance on the Radian Video Wall Processor. Return any

Radian Video Wall Processor plug-in cards that are physically damaged to Black Box Corporation.

Disposal

At the end of life, dispose of all Radian Video Wall Processor products according to local laws and regulations.

Rackmount Safety Instructions

Temperature

If you plan to install Radian Video Wall Processor systems in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, make sure the

amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised. Maintain the operating

ambient temperature of the rack environment below 35 degrees centigrade under all conditions. Appropriate

cooling arrangements should be built into the cabinet to ensure that this specification is maintained.

Safety Instructions

Mechanical Loading

Mount the equipment in the rack so that uneven mechanical loading does not cause a hazard.

Circuit Overloading

Consider the connection of the equipment to the power supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the

supply might have on any overcurrent protection or supply wiring. Be sure to consider appropriate equipment

nameplate ratings.

Reliable Earthing

Maintain reliable earthing of all rack-mounted equipment. Pay attention to supply connections other than direct

connections to the branch circuit (for example, when you are using power strips).

Replaceable Batteries

WARNING:

Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.

Dispose of used batteries according to the local laws/regulations and manufacturer’s instructions.
