Chapter 2 Preparing to Install the IP/TV Server
Safety Guidelines
• For rack configurations, make sure that space is available around the
IP/TV Server to enable the IP/TV Server cooling system to work properly.
See the documentation that comes with the rack for additional information.
• The IP/TV Server cover is in place during normal operation.
• The air baffle cover over the microprocessors remains closed during normal
operation.
• The air baffle is installed between the fans and the power supply.
• Cables for optional adapters are routed according to the instructions provided
with the adapters.
• A failed fan is replaced within 48 hours.
• IP/TV Server is turned off and the power cords are disconnected before you
open the air baffle cover.
• The air baffle assembly is always installed in IP/TV Server except when you
are installing or removing the components that are located under the air baffle
cover.
• When the air baffle assembly is installed in IP/TV Server, the air baffle cover
is always closed.
• Microprocessor socket 2 always contains either a microprocessor baffle or
a microprocessor.
Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge
Static electricity can harm delicate components inside the IP/TV Server. To
prevent static damage, discharge static electricity from your body before you
touch any of your system’s electronic components. You can do so by touching an
unpainted metal surface on the chassis.
You can also take the following steps to prevent damage from electrostatic
discharge (ESD):
• When unpacking a static-sensitive component from its shipping carton, do not
remove the component from the antistatic packing material until you are
ready to install the component in your system. Just before unwrapping the
antistatic packaging, be sure to discharge static electricity from your body.
• When transporting a sensitive component, first place it in an antistatic
container or packaging.
