AiNtAiNiNg Your Pro64 Product
AC Power
Always plug the unit into a properly grounded (earthed) outlet. Always
use the AC line cord that was shipped with the unit. Grasp the power
cable by the connector and never by the cord itself when connecting
and disconnecting it from the power source.
Do not expose the Pro64 device to moisture, rain, or excessively damp
environments.
AC Line Conditioning
Aviom products are digital devices and as such are sensitive to sudden
spikes and drops in the AC line voltage. Changes in the line voltage
from lightning, power outages, etc. can sometimes damage electronic
equipment.
To minimize the chance of damage to your equipment from sudden
changes in the AC line voltage, you may want to plug your equipment
into a power source that has surge and spike protection. Power outlet
strips are available with built-in surge protection circuits that may help
protect your equipment.
Other options for protection of your equipment include the use of an
AC line conditioner or a battery backup system (sometimes referred to
as an uninterruptible power supply, or UPS).
Rack Mounting
Pro64 products are designed to be mounted in a 19-inch equipment
rack. The rack ears on each side of the device are designed to support
the weight of the product without additional hardware. Each rack ear
contains holes for two screws per side. Always support the unit with all
four screws to avoid damage to the unit.
To rack mount the Pro64 product, position it in the equipment rack at
the desired location. Use standard rack-mounting screws (10-32 size) to
attach the unit to your rack hardware. Tighten all four screws firmly, but
avoid overtightening.
Aviom suggests the use of non-metallic washers between the rack-
mounting screws and the device’s finished surface to avoid marring the
finish on your Aviom products.
