Safety Instructions
Please read this section carefully and observe the instructions for you
own safety and correct use of the device. It also contains information on
approval and interference suppression of your machine.
Observe the warnings and instructions on the device and in the
manual.
In order to maintain this condition and ensure safe operation, the user
must observe the instructions and warnings contained in this manual.
The device must be used in accordance with the instruction for use.
The electrical installations in the room must correspond to the
requirements of the respective regulations.
Take care that there are no cables, particularly mains cables, in areas
where persons can trip over them.
DO NOT use a mains connection in sockets shared by a number of other
power consumers. DO NOT use an extension cable.
Only use the mains cable supplied.
The unit is complete disconnected from the power source, only when the
power cord is disconnected from the power source. Therefore the power
cord and its connectors must always remain easily accessible.
DO NOT set up the device in the proximity of heat sources or in a damp
location. Make sure the device has adequate ventilation.
All plugs on the connection cables must be screwed or locked to the
housing.
NOTE:
DO NOT TOUCH THE BOARD OR ANY OTHER SENSITIVE
COMPONENTS WITHOUT ALL NECESSARY ANTI-STATIC
PROTECTION.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
A sudden discharge of electrostatic electricity can destroy
static-sensitive devices or micro-circuitry. Proper packaging and
grounding techniques are necessary precautions to prevent damage.
Always take the following precautions:
Transport boards in static-safe containers such as boxes or bags.
Keep electrostatic sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at
static-free stations.
Always be properly grounded when touching a sensitive board,
component, or assembly.
Store electrostatic-sensitive boards in protective packaging or on
conductive foam.
Grounding Methods
Guard against electrostatic damage by following these steps:
1. Cover place with approved anti-static material. Provide a
wrist strap connected to a work surface and properly
grounded tools and equipment.
2. Use anti-static mats, heel straps, or air ionizes to give added
protection.
3. Handle electrostatic-sensitive components, boards, and
assemblies by the case or the PCB edge.
4. Avoid contact with pins, leads, or circuitry.
5. Turn off power and input signals before inserting and
removing connectors or test equipment.
6. Keep work area free of non-conductive materials such as
ordinary plastic assembly aids and Styrofoam.
7. Use field service tools, such as cutters, screwdrivers, and
vacuums that are conductive.
8. Always place drives and boards PCB-assembly-side down on
the foam.

Assembly, Disassembly
In this chapter, we give the description of how to install/access the
components inside the RC-741.
CAUTION:
3.1
Check and make sure that the power supply matches the
environment line voltage in your area before turning on the
system power. Turn off the system power before connection
or disconnecting any peripherals or cables. Electric currents
can cause electric shock or damage to the system.
Removing the Top Cover
Removal of the top cover allows you to access the internal system
components of the RC-741. When removing the top cover, follow the
instructions listed below.
1.
Move your fingertips around the top cover and locate the screws
that attach it to the chassis. A total of six (6) screws should be
removed to free the top cover.
2.
There are 2 screws located at the rear side of the chassis, another
2 on the left side and 2 on the right side of the top chassis rim.
Loosen the screws. Secure the screws in a safe place; you will
need them when affixing back the top cover.
3.
After removing the six (screws), slide the top cover backwards to
completely disengage it from the chassis. Lift the top cover and
place it aside.

Assembly Backplane & Power
Supply
3.2.1 Backplane Installation
1.
Put hex pillar screws on positions fit for screw holes of the
backplane.
2.
Match the holes and put the backplane on the chassis. Secure
backplane with 6#-32 pan head screws.
12
3.2.2 Power Supply Installation
1.
Secure the power supply unit with 6#-32 hex screws on the
chassis.
2.
Connect the 20-pin ATX power plug to the ATX power connector
on backplane.
13
3.2.3 SBC and Extension Cards Installation
1.
Align the SBC (or expansion cards) connector with the slot and
press firmly unit the card is completely seated on the slot. Secure
card with 6#-32 flat head screws, and lock metal blankets on
un-using places.
2.
Make sure SBC and expansion cards were installed completely,
fix the anti-vibrate to insure cards against loosing while
vibrating.
14
3.2.4 Installation Disk Drives
The RC-741 has shock-resistant drive bay providing mounting space
for up to one removable shock-resistant drives Drive sizes can be in
eight 3.5” HDD and one 5.25” CD-ROM. 5.25” CD-ROM out of the
installed drives is accessible from the front panel.
1.
Examine the disk drive cage and locate the screws attached to it.
2.
There are four screws that hold the drive cage from the external
right side of the panel. See the figure on the right for the exact
location of these four screws. Remove these screws then gently
pull the drive cage off the chassis. You may now install the drives
at your preferred locations.
3.
Secure the mounting of all the drives before you return the drive
cage back into its original position.
4.
Mount back the screws you removed from Steps 2 and 3.
