Noise Induction
In addition to the AC Power requirements outlined in AC Power Requirements,
eliminate other sources of electromagnetic interference to ensure the trouble-free
operation of the equipment.
Noise radiating from AC power lines throughout a site can be absorbed by MICROS
AC power and communications lines and induced into the equipment. Therefore, do
not run exposed cable dedicated to the MICROS equipment in the vicinity of any AC
power lines.
Electrostatic Discharge
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) usually takes the form of a discharge from the operator’s
hand to the cash drawer, printer, or key switches. ESD is more common in dry
climates during winter and less common in moist climates.
Oracle MICROS hardware is tested to high levels of electrostatic discharge, exceeding
industry standards.
Humidity
A constant humidity between 40% and 80% is desired for the proper operation of the
equipment.
Custom Cabinets and Enclosures
To maintain the internal temperature within the equipment at the specified levels,
adequate ventilation is required. Do not mount the equipment in an enclosure that
could impede air flow to all four sides. A three sided (front and back open) enclosure
with 4 inches of clearance on all sides is acceptable.
Temperature
Operating and storage temperatures for Oracle MICROS workstations are listed
below.
