The dust accumulated on the device can be absorbed by static electricity and result in poor contact of metal contact points. Some measures have been taken for the device to prevent static electricity, but too strong static electricity can cause deadly damage to the electronic elements on the internal circuit board. To avoid the effect of static electricity on the operation of the device, please attach much importance to the following items:

• Dust the device regularly, and keep the indoor air clean.
• Keep the device well grounded and ensure static electricity has been transferred.

Electromagnetic Interference

Illustration of a U-shaped magnet with a lightning bolt and a prohibition symbol (no text or labels)

Electronic elements including capacitance and inductance on the device can be affected by external interferences, such as conducted emission by capacitance coupling, inductance coupling, and impedance coupling. To decrease the interferences, please make sure to take the following measures:

- Use the power supply that can effectively filter interference from the power grid.

• Keep the device far from high-frequency, strong-current devices, such as radio transmitting station.
• Use electromagnetic shielding when necessary.

Lightening Protection

Illustration of a portable electronic device with lightning bolts and a circuit symbol (no text or labels)

Extremely high voltage currents can be produced instantly when lightning occurs and the air in the electric discharge path can be instantly heated up to 20,000°C. As this instant current is strong enough to damage electronic devices, more effective lightning protection measures should be taken.

• Ensure the rack and device are well earthed.
  ■ Make sure the power socket has a good contact with the ground.
• Keep a reasonable cabling system and avoid induced lightning.
• Use the signal SPD (Surge Protective Device) when wiring outdoor.
