VIII. Maintenance and Precautions

Installation Inspection: Before installation, check that the module appearance is intact, and the backplane connectors are free from oxidation and deformation; During installation, gently insert and push the connector into the slot, ensuring that the connector is fully engaged. Secure the screws to prevent vibration.

Hot-swapping operation: If the circuit allows for short-term online replacement, simply plug and unplug; after replacement, observe the front panel LEDs to confirm that the module has started and the channel outputs are normal.

Daily status monitoring: The front panel contains an operation LED, a fault LED, and 4-channel LEDs; a lit channel LED indicates normal output, while a extinguished one indicates an anomaly; when the fault LED lights up, quickly locate the fault by referring to the system diagnostic information.

Regular maintenance: Clean the surface and terminals of the module and check for loose connections every 6 months; perform an accuracy calibration once every 12 months to ensure long-term accuracy.

Storage requirements: Store the module in a dry, ventilated, dust-free environment with a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Protect from moisture and dust to prevent component aging.
