Environmental Requirements
CAUTION
The criteria on this page must be observed for all installations of the ImageStar HD,
whether free-standing or rack-mounted.
Orientation
The ImageStar HD must be operated in the horizontal position only. When used free-standing it must
be placed on a stable, flat and level surface. Ensure that the surface finish will not be affected by the
heat produced by the ImageStar HD when in use.
Temperature
DO NOT install or operate the ImageStar HD in an area where the ambient temperature exceeds
35°C (95°F) or falls below 5°C (35°F).
Remember that, as with all electronic equipment, the ImageStar HD and its associated PSU also
produces heat which may affect the ambient temperature.
After the ImageStar HD has been in use for a period of time the external casing will be very warm to
the touch. While the temperature is well within safe limits please be aware that it may be hotter than
you are expecting. Ensure that any adjacent surfaces will not be affected by the heat.
Ventilation
No special ventilation is required. However, it is recommended that free air circulation is permitted
around the unit.
Humidity & Water
DO NOT install or operate the ImageStar HD in an area in which the ambient relative humidity
exceeds 85% or in an area that is prone to condensation.
DO NOT install or operate the ImageStar HD near water or in a location which may be prone to water
seepage — the ImageStar HD is not waterproof.
