Precautions
Precautions for products with built-
in HDD
This unit has a built-in hard disk drive (HDD). The HDD
is a precision device. If subject to shock, vibration, static
electricity, high temperature or humidity, data loss can
occur. When installing and using the unit, closely observe
the following precautions.
Protect from shocks and vibrations
When subject to shocks or vibrations, the HDD can be
damaged and loss of data on the HDD can occur.
• When transporting the unit, use the specified packing
material. When transporting on a dolly or similar, use a
type which does not transmit excessive vibrations.
Excessive shocks and vibrations can damage the HDD.
• Never move the unit while it is powered.
• Do not remove panels or outer parts of the unit.
• When placing the unit on a floor or other surface, make
sure that the unit is equipped with the specified rubber
feet, and put the unit down carefully. If there are no feet,
mount the rubber feet first.
• Do not place the unit near other devices that may become
a source of vibrations.
Wait for 30 seconds after turning power off
For a brief interval after the power is turned off, the platters
inside the HDD will still keep spinning and the heads will
be in an insecure position. During this interval, the unit is
more susceptible to shocks and vibrations than during
normal operation. For a period of at least 30 seconds after
turning power off, avoid subjecting the unit even to very
light shocks. After this period, the hard disk will be fully
stopped and the unit can be manipulated.
Temperature and humidity related precautions
Use and store the unit only in locations where the specified
temperature and humidity ranges are not exceeded. (Be
sure to use the unit that conforms fully to the specifications
of this unit.)
When HDD seems to be faulty
Even if the HDD is showing signs of malfunction, be sure
to observe all the above precautions. This will prevent
further damage from occurring until the problem can be
diagnosed and corrected.
HDD replacement
When the HDD has reached the end of its replacement
cycle (HDD life), the unit's internal monitoring function
sends a report to the host system that controls the unit, and
displays this status on the touch panel monitor connected
to the TPC connector.
Consult Qualified Sony Service Personnel about
installation and replacement of the HDD.
On moisture condensation
If the unit is suddenly taken from a cold to a warm location,
or if ambient temperature suddenly rises, moisture may
form on the outer surface of the unit and/or inside of the
unit. This is known as condensation. If condensation
occurs, turn off the unit and wait until the condensation
clears before operating the unit. Operating the unit while
condensation is present may damage the unit.
On Security
• SONY WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OF
ANY KIND RESULTING FROM A FAILURE TO
IMPLEMENT PROPER SECURITY MEASURES ON
TRANSMISSION DEVICES, UNAVOIDABLE DATA
LEAKS RESULTING FROM TRANSMISSION
SPECIFICATIONS, OR SECURITY PROBLEMS OF
ANY KIND.
• Depending on the operating environment, unauthorized
third parties on the network may be able to access the
system.
We strongly recommend configuring all of the
passwords for security purposes.
For details on configuring all the passwords, refer to the
Installation Manual.
• Do not browse any other website in the Web browser
while making settings or after making settings. Since the
login status remains in the Web browser, close the Web
browser when you complete the settings to prevent
unauthorized third parties from using the unit or harmful
programs from running.
