Instructions for use
Before installation, it is necessary to confirm the compatibility between the backplane model and the RX3i series module used to avoid equipment failure caused by model mismatch.
During the installation process, it is necessary to strictly follow electrical safety regulations, ensure good grounding, and prevent static electricity or leakage from causing damage to the equipment; When plugging or unplugging modules, the relevant power supply should be cut off first to avoid live operation.
3. During use, the backplane and modules should be regularly inspected, surface dust should be cleaned, and slot contact should be checked to avoid signal transmission abnormalities caused by poor contact.
4. The backplane needs to be used in conjunction with the GE RX3i series dedicated power module, and non compatible power supplies cannot be replaced at will to avoid equipment damage caused by inconsistent power supply parameters.
5. If the equipment malfunctions, GE authorized after-sales service personnel should be contacted for inspection and repair to avoid disassembling and expanding the malfunction.
