Safety Precautions
To avoid potential video and/or keyboard problems when using Avocent products:
•
If the building has 3-phase AC power, ensure that the computer and monitor
are on the same phase. For best results, they should be on the same circuit.
•
Use only Avocent-supplied cable to connect computers and KVM switches.
Avocent warranties do not apply to damage resulting from user-supplied cable.
To avoid potentially fatal shock hazard and possible damage to equipment,
please observe the following precautions:
•
Do not use a 2-wire extension cord in any Avocent product configuration.
•
Test AC outlets at the computer and monitor for proper polarity and grounding.
•
Use only with grounded outlets at both the computer and monitor. When
using a backup power supply (UPS), power the computer, the monitor and
the appliance off the supply.
NOTE:
The AC inlet is the main disconnect.
Rack mount safety considerations
•
Elevated Ambient Temperature: If installed in a closed rack assembly, the
operation temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room
ambient. Use care not to exceed the rated maximum ambient temperature
of the unit.
•
Reduced Air Flow: Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such
that the amount of airflow required for safe operation of the equipment is
not compromised.
•
Mechanical Loading: Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such
that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
•
Circuit Overloading: Consideration should be given to the connection of
the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of
circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Consider
equipment nameplate ratings for maximum current.
•
Reliable Earthing: Reliable earthing of rack mounted equipment should be
maintained. Pay particular attention to supply connections other than
direct connections to the branch circuit (for example, use of power strips).
