• Near an adequate power source. Connect the system to the appropriate branch circuit protection as defined by
your local electrical codes.
• Environmental temperature between 32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C).
• Relative humidity that does not exceed 85 percent noncondensing.
• In a dry, clean, well-ventilated and temperature-controlled room, away from heat sources such as hot air vents
or direct sunlight.
• Away from sources of severe electromagnetic noise.
• Positioned in a rack or cabinet, or on a desktop with adequate space in the front, rear, and sides of the S5000 for
proper ventilation and access.
