Hardware Description & Installation Manual

• When installing this equipment, do not attach the power cord to building surfaces.

• Products that have no on/off switch, and use an external power supply must be

installed in proximity to a main power outlet that is easily accessible.

• Use the correct voltage setting. If this product lacks auto-ranging power supplies,

before applying power ensure that each power supply is set to match the power
source.

• Provide proper ventilation. To prevent product overheating, provide equipment

ventilation in accordance with the installation instructions.

• Do not operate with suspected equipment failure. If you suspect product damage or

equipment failure, have the equipment inspected by qualified service personnel.

• To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than that

contained in the operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so. Refer all
servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing should be done in a static-free
environment.

• This unit may have more than one power supply cord.  Disconnect all power supply

cords before servicing to avoid electric shock.

• Follow static precautions at all times when handling this equipment.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Protection

Electrostatic discharge occurs when electronic components are improperly
handled and can result in intermittent failure or complete damage adversely
affecting an electrical circuit. When you remove and replace any card from a frame

always follow ESD-prevention procedures:

• Ensure that the frame is electrically connected to earth ground through the power cord

or any other means if available.

• Wear an ESD wrist strap ensuring that it makes good skin contact. Connect the

grounding clip to an unpainted surface of the chassis frame to safely ground unwanted
ESD voltages. If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching the unpainted
metal part of the chassis.

• For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap, which should

be between 1 and 10 megohms.

• When temporarily storing a card make sure it is placed in an ESD bag.

• Cards in an earth grounded metal frame or casing do not require any special ESD

protection.

Battery Handling

This product includes a backup battery. There is a danger of explosion if the battery
is replaced incorrectly. Replace the battery only with the same or equivalent type
recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the

manufacturer’s instructions. Before disposing of your Grass Valley equipment, please
review the Disposal and Recycling Information appendix.
