8. Safety and Handling Requirements

Installation and maintenance work must be operated by qualified electrical staff.
Always disconnect power before disassembling, assembling or wiring.
Keep module away from liquid, corrosive gas and conductive dust.
Do not disassemble internal structure, no user maintainable parts inside.

9. Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Regularly check module surface, connector and fixing condition every quarter.
Clean dust with dry soft cloth strictly, do not use chemical solvent.
No LINK light: Check network cable integrity, port connection and power supply status.
ACT light no flicker: Confirm IP address setting, network segment matching and station communication configuration.
Intermittent communication failure: Inspect wiring fixation and eliminate nearby strong electromagnetic interference source.
