Preface
This manual provides information and recommendations to help prepare a
site for the installation of an ARIX System90 Model 45 and Model 85
computer. It describes physical and functional characteristics of the host, of
tenninals, printers, modems, and other devices to be configured with the
system. However, except for some minor details about equipment external
to the system, it covers only System90 Model 45 and Model 85 equipment.
To obtain similar infonnation on peripheral units (tenninals, printers, etc.)
produced by companies other than ARIX, refer to the publications offered
by the device's manufacturer. All recommendations of this site preparation
guide should be followed before the system is installed. Once the system is
installed, it can be very difficult to make changes or to correct problems.



Customer Responsibilities
You should follow closely the recommendations made in the manual before
the system is installed. Failure to meet any of the requirements listed below
may invalidate any warranties or guarantees made under the purchase
agreement.
