WARNING NOTICE TO USER!
Although preventative safety measures have been designed into Radial
500 series products we strictly advise against hot-swapping modules
or plugging and unplugging them when the Workhorse or other 500 series
rack is powered on. Hot swapping can cause connection sparks at the card-
edge connector that could send damaging transients to other equipment.
This also greatly reduces the life span of the card-edge contacts. Damage
due to hot swapping is not covered under warranty. There are no user
serviceable parts inside.
