Precautions
Observe these precautions when installing the Cognex Communication card to reduce the risk of injury or equipment
damage:
l
Route cables and wires away from high-current wiring or high-voltage power sources to reduce the risk of
damage or malfunction from the following causes: over-voltage, line noise, electrostatic discharge (ESD), power
surges, or other irregularities in the power supply.
l
Do not install the Communication card in areas directly exposed to environmental hazards such as excessive
heat, dust, moisture, humidity, impact, vibration, corrosive substances, flammable substances, or static electricity.
l
The Communication card does not contain user-serviceable parts. Do not make electrical or mechanical
modifications to the components. Unauthorized modifications may void your warranty.
l
Include service loops with cable connections.
l
Ensure that the cable bend radius begins at least six inches from the connector. Cable shielding can be
degraded or cables can be damaged or wear out faster if a service loop or bend radius is tighter than 10X the
cable diameter.
l
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for regulatory compliance could void
the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
l
This device is certified for office use only and if used at home, there can be frequency interference problems.
l
This device should be used in accordance with the instructions in this manual.
l
All specifications are for reference purposes only and can change without notice.
