Device Service mounting location
Installation
considerations
The location selected to install the Device Server can greatly affect its performance.
When selecting a site, consider the following:
Install the Device Server in a fairly cool and dry place. See Technical
Specifications for the acceptable temperature and humidity operating ranges.
Install the Device Server in a location free from strong electromagnetic field
generators (such as motors).
Do not expose or subject the Device Server to vibration, dust, and direct exposure
to sunlight.
Leave at least 5cm (1.97 in) of space at the front and rear of the unit for
ventilation.
To prevent the Device Server from sliding around affix the provided rubber pads
to the bottom plate or mount the device to a DIN Rail.
Installation
cautions
Observe the following cautions when installing the Device Server.
CAUTION
Only qualified persons should install the Device Server. Failure to observe this
caution could result in poor performance or damage to the Device Server.
CAUTION
Install the Device Server in an operating environment where the temperature
range is from 0ºC to 70ºC (32º to 158º F), with relative humidity of 5% to 90%,
non-condensing. Failure to observe this caution could result in poor Device
Server performance.
CAUTION
DO NOT install the Device Server in areas where strong electromagnetic fields
(EMF) exist. Failure to observe this caution could result in poor Device Server
performance and data corruption.
