Datacryptor Ethernet User Manual Appendix A: Device Maintenance
1270A450-005 - June 2008 Page 87
a locked equipment closet provides a more secure environment than an open server room. At a
minimum, we recommended that the unit’s physical integrity be checked monthly.
The units also have interlock switches that will cause the key material to be erased if the lid is
removed.
Power Supplies
Failure of one of the power supply units will cause a high-pitched continuous note to sound,
allowing a replacement to be planned.
Note: There is only one power supply in the Datacryptor 100 Mb Ethernet and so no
audible signal will be generated for power failure in that unit.
Lithium Battery
The Datacryptor contains a lithium battery, which has a typical life expectancy of 10 years,
dependant on usage. The Datacryptor must be returned to Thales for battery replacement.
WARNING: Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose
of used batteries according to the instructions.
