MAINTENANCE
~
Series 900
computer
systems
require
minimum
maintenance
and
care to
keep
them
operating
properly. A
proper
environment
for the
computer
means
placing
the
unit
within
the
appropriate
temperature,
humidity,
and
altitude
ranges.
See
Specifications
for a list
of
these
environmental
ranges. For
the
best
performance of
the
computer
and
for
the
comfort of the operator,
it
is
better
to
place the
computer
in
the
middle
of these
environmental
ranges.
It
is
important
that
the
environmental
conditions
not
change abruptly.
Cleaning
If
the
housing
of
the
computer
needs
cleaning,
spray
a
small
amount
of a
mild
household
cleaner
on
a clean, soft, cotton cloth
and
gently
wipe
the
surfaces.
Be
careful
not
to
get
any
liquid
into
the
computer's
operating
mechanisms
by
spraying
cleaner directly
on
the
cabinet. For printers, terminals,
or
other
peripherals, refer to
the
equipment's
user
manual
for cleaning instructions.
Tape Drive Maintenance
It
is
your
responsibility to
ensure
that
tape
drives
are
properly
cleaned. The
cartridge
tape
drive
should
be
cleaned after
every
eight
hours
of use,
and
cartridge
tape
cleaning
supplies
are available
from
Motorola.
The
MVME857
DAT
drive
should
be
cleaned after
every
25
hours
of use. A cleaning
kit
is
supplied
with
this drive.
To
prevent
loss of
data
or
damage
to
the
cartridge tapes, store
them
in
a
protected
location
which
meets
the
following requirements:

to another).
Try to place the cartridge
tapes
in
the
middle
of this
temperature
range
for
best
storage results.
