Chapter 1 Security
1.1. Safety Precaution
This document inform how to make each cable connection. In most cases, you will simply
need to connect a standard cable.
Table 1 Terms and conventions
Symbol
Meaning
Always disconnect the power cord from the chassis whenever there is no
workload required on it. Do not connect the power cable while the power is on.
A sudden rush of power can damage sensitive electronic components. Only
experienced electricians should open the chassis.
Always ground yourself to remove any static electric charge before touching
BPC-iMX8MP-03 product. Modern electronic devices are very sensitive to
electric charges. Use a grounding wrist strap at all times. Place all electronic
components on a static-dissipative surface or in a static-shielded bag.
1.2. Safety Instruction
To avoid malfunction or damage to this product please observe the following:
1．Disconnect the device from the DC power supply before cleaning. Use a damp cloth. Do
not use liquid detergents or spray-on detergents.
2．Keep the device away from moisture.
3．During installation, set the device down on a reliable surface. Drops and bumps will lead to
damage.
4．Before connecting the power supply, ensure that the voltage is in the required range, and
the way of wiring is correct.
5．Carefully put the power cable in place to avoid stepping on it.
6．If the device is not used for a long time, power it off to avoid damage caused by sudden

overvoltage.
7．Do not pour liquid into the venting holes of the enclosure, as this could cause fire or
electric shock.
8．For safety reasons, the device can only be disassembled by professional personnel.
9．If one of the following situations occur, get the equipment checked by service personnel:
The power cord or plug is damaged.
Liquid has penetrated into the equipment.
The equipment has been exposed to moisture.
The equipment does not work well, or you cannot get it to work according to the
user's manual.
The equipment has been dropped and damaged.
The equipment has obvious signs of breakage.
10．Do not place the device in a place where the ambient temperature is below -20°C (-4°F)
or above 70°C (158°F). This will damage the machine. It needs to be kept in an environment
at controlled temperature.
11．Due to the sensitive nature of the equipment, it must be stored in a restricted access
location, only accessible by qualified engineer.
