Installing the Equipment 2.1 Read This First! 2.1.1 Handling The equipment must be handled and installed carefully and thoughtfully to prevent safety hazards and damage. 2.1.2 Installing the Equipment Ensure the personnel designated to fit the unit have the appropriate skills and knowledge. If in any doubt, contact Ericsson Customer Services (see Preliminary Pages for contact details).
Installing the Equipment Where appropriate, ensure this product has an adequate level of lightning protection. Alternatively, during a lightning storm or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the supply outlet and disconnect the output equipment. This prevents damage to the product due to lightning and power line surges. 2.2 Preliminary Checks 2.2.
Installing the Equipment 2.3.2 Ventilation 2.3.3 Openings in the Covers Side openings in the unit, as well as side-mounted cooling fans, are provided for ventilation. They ensure reliable operation of the product and protect it from overheating. The openings of the fans must not be blocked or covered. Air is released through vents at this side of the unit. Fans are mounted on this side of the unit Figure 2.1 Air-flow Through the Equipment 2.3.3.
Installing the Equipment 2.3.4 Installing Cables - Safety Power supply cables should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them. Pay particular attention to cables at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance. Do not run AC power cables in the same duct as signal leads. Do not move or install equipment whilst it is still attached to the mains supply.
Installing the Equipment Warning! The RX1290 should only be operated from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type to your business, consult your appliance dealer or local power company. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock. The RX1290 Receivers are not fitted with an AC power ON/OFF switch. Ensure the supply socket outlet is installed or located near the equipment so that it is accessible.
Installing the Equipment If the colors do not correspond with the colored markings identifying the terminals in a locally supplied plug, proceed as in Table 2.2. The inclusion of Table 2.2 is for reference. Table 2.2 Non Standard Supply Cord Wire Colors Wire Color (UK) 2.5.3 Action green-and-yellow ...must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E or the safety earth symbol or colored green or green-and-yellow. blue ...
Installing the Equipment Technical Earth Figure 2.3 Location of the Technical Earth 2.7 Signal Connections 2.7.1 General Caution! It is strongly recommended that the terminal marked at the rear panel of the equipment is connected to a site Technical Earth before any external connections are made and the equipment is powered. This limits the migration of stray charges. All signal connections are made via the rear panel. A typical rear panel is shown in Figure 2.4.

Glossary DCE Data Communications Equipment: Typically a modem. It establishes, maintains and terminates a session on a network but in itself is not the source (originator) or destination (end receiving unit) of signals (e.g. a computer, see DTE).

Glossary A-14 PES Packetized Elementary Stream: A sequential stream of data bytes that has been converted from original elementary streams of audio and video access units and transported as packets. Each PES packet consists of a header and a payload of variable length and subject to a maximum of 64 kbytes. A time stamp is provided by the MPEG-2 systems layer to ensure correct synchronization between related elementary streams at the Decoder.
Glossary PRPB Analogue Color difference signals. Refer to CRCB for an explanation. PROM Programmable Read-Only Memory: A device, which may be written once with data for permanent storage, and then read whenever required. Special types of PROM permit the erasure of all data by Ultraviolet light (EPROM) or by application of an electronic signal (EEPROM).
