Warnings
A
warning
refers to an action or situation that could result in
injury, long term health hazard
or death
if you do not follow the instructions.
Antenna
- RF radiation hazard: The area between the antenna reflector and the iLNB feed horn exposes
hazardous electromagnetic field levels during transmission. Do not place your head and/or body
in that zone while the system is operational. Take the necessary precautions to prevent access
to the antenna by children or unauthorised persons.
IPmodem
- There are no user-serviceable parts in the IPmodem. There are potentially lethal voltages inside
the equipment. It should only be opened by a technician trained and certified to service the
product.
- When the IPmodem is powered on, DC voltages are present on the rear panel Tx and Rx
connectors.
- Do not expose the IPmodem to rain or moisture to prevent fire or shock hazard. Do not expose
the IPmodem to dripping or splashing and do not place any objects filled with liquids, such as
vases, on it.
- Postpone antenna and IPmodem installation until there is no risk of thunderstorm or lightning
activity in the area.
- To prevent electrical shock, if the unit is provided with a polarized plug, do not connect the plug
into an extension cord, receptacle or other outlet unless the plug can be fully inserted with no
part of the blades exposed.
- Connect the in-line power supply input power cord to a properly grounded three-prong AC
outlet. Do not use adapter plugs or remove the grounding prong from the plug.
- Do not use the in-line power supply power cord when damaged in any form.
