We urge you to test and ensure your electrical power and confirm the Voltage is within nominal ranges before powering the unit on. It is also advised that the circuit is equipped with adequate surge protection and fitted with an uninterruptable power supply (UPS).
INITIAL NETWORK SETUP

The Windows PC on which the COBALT will be installed should be connected to the same network and subnet as the COBALT.
