Before installing and using the device, note the following precautions: mended that you do not use needlenose pliers to disconnect connections
as these can damage the soft metal or plastic parts of the connectors.
▪▪ Read all instructions carefully.
▪▪ Do not place the unit on an unstable surface, cart, or stand.
▪▪ Follow all warnings and cautions in this manual.
▪▪ When replacing parts, ensure that your service technician uses parts
specified by the manufacturer.
▪▪ Avoid using the system near water, in direct sunlight, or near a heating
device.
▪▪ The load of the system unit does not solely rely for support from the
rackmounts located on the sides. Firm support from the bottom is highly
necessary in order to provide balance stability.
▪▪ The computer is provided with a battery-powered real-time clock circuit.
There is a danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace
only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufactur-
er. Discard used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Chapter 2: Jumpers and Connectors

Jumper Settings
A jumper is the simplest kind of electric switch. It consists of two metal
pins and a cap. When setting the jumpers, ensure that the jumper caps are
placed on the correct pins. When the jumper cap is placed on both pins,
the jumper is short. If you remove the jumper cap, or place the jumper
cap on just one pin, the jumper is open.
Refer to the illustrations below for examples of what the 2-pin and 3-pin
jumpers look like when they are short (on) and open (off).
Two-Pin Jumpers: Open (Left) and Short (Right)

Three-Pin Jumpers: Pins 1 and 2 Are Short
