vibrations, electromagnetic fields from transformers or similar.
The unit has internal fans and requires free airflow in front and rear of unit. It is recommended
that ventilation/air conditioning is provided in order to keep the ambient operating
temperature around +20°C. It is also important that the area around the unit is kept free from
dust and static electricity.
All connections to the unit are at the rear side of the cabinet and available space for cable

Since the keyboard is located in the cabinet, the distance between the monitor and the cabinet
should be limited to a practical range where the monitor may be seen and read from the
position of the cabinet.
