XANBUS SHOCK HAZARD

Xanbus cables in contact with DC or AC power can transmit an electric shock.

Do not route the Xanbus cables in the same conduit or panel as the AC and DC power cabling.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.

WARNING

SHORT CIRCUIT OF NETWORK COMPONENTS

• This network is not an ethernet system. Only connect Xanbus-enabled devices to other Xanbus-enabled devices.

Do not attempt to connect Xanbus-enabled devices to other networks or systems.

• Ethernet crossover cables are not compatible with the Xanbus system. Use Category 5 (CAT 5 or CAT 5e) cables

to connect Xanbus-enabled devices.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in damage to equipment.

NOTICE

Control Panel

1. Insert a Xanbus cable (standard straight-through Ethernet CAT 5e) into one of the

network ports on the bottom panel of the AGS.

2. Connect the other end of the cable to the next Xanbus-enabled device in the chain.

Depending on the layout of the Xanbus network, the following options are available for

the other Xanbus port on the AGS:

• A second network cable to another device in the chain.

• A network terminator (when the AGS is the last device at one end of the network).

Connect the Xanbus cables
