System Installation and Setup

This chapter provides an overview of the how and where to install the Splunk Edge Hub. The Splunk Edge Hub’s small size, light weight and mounting brackets make it convenient for mounting in a variety of situations and orientations including above or below a horizontal surface or on the side walls of an enclosure.
In addition to size, orientation and airflow considerations highlighted on the following pages, there are several factors that should be considered in the selection of an optimum location for the Splunk Edge Hub. Some of these factors include the following:

  • It should be a clean location
  • The location should be selected to minimize dust, dirt, and airborne contaminants
  • The ambient air temperature must be considered
  • Provisions should be made for adequate air flow and overall enclosure cooling
  • An attempt should be made to minimize shock and vibration on the mounting surface
  • Cable lengths and cable routing provisions for attached devices should be considered
  • Proximity to a neighboring power supply should be taken into account
  • The need for a surge protection device or uninterruptible power supply should be reviewed
  • If manual startup and shutdown are desired, access to the power button must be assured
  • It should not be placed in a way that is difficult to plug in or remove the power adapter from the Edge Hub
  •  System should only be set up or physically touched when ambient temperatures are in the normal operating range of 0-40 degrees C. The system can gather data and be controlled remotely in extended environmental range of 40ºC to 85ºC but users must NOT physically touch the unit when the unit is outside this range.

Proper attention to the above considerations can vastly improve the ease of installation and need for maintenance on any electronic device, including the Splunk Edge Hub.
Instructions for Use

  • Take edge hub out of packaging and visually inspect computer to ensure that there are no damage or irregularities that may have happened during shipping and that no components are missing

  • The unit comes does not need to be grounded as it comes with an insulated case and an external power adapter. The power adapter comes grounded against short circuits with a +12V short circuit protector. Ensure that the power adapter is correctly plugged in and functional to ensure grounding.

  • The normal operating conditions during which it is safe for a human to operate the Edge Hub is 0° to 40°C. However, the Edge Hub is functional at temperature ranges of – 40° C to 85° C, and its sensors will continue to gather data from the environment. Do not physically touch, set up, or use the touch screen of the Edge Hub if the ambient temperature is above or below the normal operating temperature range. If the ambient temperature is above or below the normal operating range, only use remote monitoring or control systems to safely interact with the Edge Hub. If it is necessary to directly contact the edge Hub, wait for ambient temperatures to reach normal operating temperatures of 0° to 40°C before directly interacting with the Edge Hub.

  •  If the Edge Hub was previously operating in ambient temperatures exceeding  normal operating range, the unit may have become very hot. Wait at least one hour after theambient temperature has returned to normal operating range before interacting with the device.

Instructions for checking correct functions and verifying safe state after repair

  • Power on the Edge Hub and check that the verifying  Edge Hub boots up correctly and that the operating system loads without any errors.
  • Visually inspect the Edge Hub for any possible damage or issues
  • Check the display for proper resolution and color quality. Make sure that there is no flickering or distortion of the image.
  • Check the network connectivity by running a diagnostic test or by trying to access the internet. Make sure that the Edge Hub can connect to the network and that it has internet access.
  • Check the installed software by opening a few common applications a to ensure they are running and working properly.
  • Run a diagnostic tool such as the built-in system utility or third-party software to check for any errors or issues on the Edge Hub.
  • Avoid prolonged contact of the AC adaptor or Edge Hub Exterior (it can become hot when in use for long periods or in high ambient temperatures) to prevent skin irritation and/or heat injury.
  • Do not disassemble, modify, tamper with or repair your product (including AC adaptor)
  • Test the Edge Hub’s performance by running benchmarking software to check the CPU, GPU, and memory performance.

2.1 Physical Dimensions and Mounting Provisions
Physical dimensions and locations of mounting holes for Splunk Edge Hub are generally provided in the user manual.
In addition, the Splunk Edge Hub includes four cushioned mounting pads on the bottom side of the enclosure. These mounting pads are largely cosmetic in nature and serve to minimize scratches to the mounting surface. They are also somewhat of a noise and vibration damper that help to eliminate metal to metal contact between the bottom of the Splunk Edge Hub and an adjacent metal surface.

2.2 Physical Orientations for Safely Mounting the Splunk Edge Hub
The Edge Hub can be safely mounted in any orientation. The outer case provides a fire-retardant barrier in any direction in case of unforeseen hazardous conditions. The unit will also scale back performance if internal sensors indicate an overheated condition, and eventually may power off in the event of extreme temperature overloading.
While no specific mounting orientation is required, the following mounting provisions promote long, trouble-free operation for the Splunk Edge Hub:

  1. Do not place anything directly against the Splunk Edge Hub cover, including cables, shelves, additional equipment, papers, etc.
  2. Keep the heat sink of the Splunk Edge Hub clean and free of physical obstructions, including loose cables, lint, dirt, etc.
  3. Insure that cabinet fans within the system (if present) direct at least a modest amount of air flow across the Splunk Edge Hub   chassis.

WARNING: Failure to provide adequate structural strength or proper mounting for this accessory can result in serious personal injury or damage to equipment! It is the installer’s responsibility to make sure the structure to which this accessory is attached can support five times the combined weight of all equipment. Reinforce the structure as required before installing the Splunk Edge Hub
Before mounting the Mount to your Splunk Edge Hub Edge Hub, please ensure that you have all the necessary tools and components. First, gather your materials: You will need the Bracket Mount and screws. Next, locate the mounting holes on the back of
