AlterPath ACS Installation, Administration, and User’s Guide 333
Safety Precautions for Operating the AlterPath ACS
Caution: Do not operate your AlterPath ACS with the cover removed.
Caution: To avoid shorting out your AlterPath ACS when disconnecting the network
cable, first unplug the cable from the Host Server, unplug external power (if
applicable) from the equipment, and then unplug the cable from the network
jack. When reconnecting a network cable to the back of the equipment, first
plug the cable into the network jack, and then into the Host Server equipment.
Caution: To help prevent electric shock, plug the AlterPath ACS into a properly
grounded power source. The cable is equipped with a three-prong plug to help
ensure proper grounding. Do not use adapter plugs or remove the grounding
prong from the cable. If you have to use an extension cable, use a three-wire
cable with properly grounded plugs.
Caution: To help protect the AlterPath ACS from electrical power fluctuations, use a
surge suppressor, line conditioner, or uninterruptible power supply. Be sure
that nothing rests on the cables of the ACS and that they are not located where
they can be stepped on or tripped over. Do not spill food or liquids on ACS.
Caution: Do not push any objects through the openings of the AlterPath ACS. Doing so
can cause fire or electric shock by shorting out interior components.
Caution: Keep your AlterPath ACS away from heat sources and do not block host’s
cooling vents.
Caution: The AlterPath ACS DC-powered models are only intended to be installed in
restricted access areas (Dedicated Equipment Rooms, Equipment Closets or
the like) in accordance with Articles 110-18, 110-26 and 110-27 of the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 701, 1999 Edition. Use 18 AWG or
0.75 mm2 or above cable to connect the DC configured unit to the Centralized
D.C. Power Systems. Install the required double-pole, single-throw, DC rated
UL Listed circuit breaker between the power source and the AlterPath ACS
