1.10. For Your Safety

Your  new  DIGITAL-LOGIC  product  was  developed  and  tested  carefully  to  provide  all  features
necessary  to  ensure  its  compliance  with  electrical  safety  requirements.  It  was  also  designed  for  a
long, fault-free  life.  However, this life expectancy  can be drastically  reduced by improper treatment
during  unpacking  and  installation.  Therefore,  in  the  interest  of  your  own  safety  and  for  the  correct
operation of your new DIGITAL-LOGIC product, please comply with the following guidelines.

Attention!

All work on this device must only be carried out by sufficiently skilled personnel.

Caution, Electric Shock!

Before installing  your new DIGITAL-LOGIC product, always ensure that  your mains power is
switched  off.  This  applies  also  to  the  installation  of  piggybacks  or  peripherals.  Serious
electrical  shock  hazards  can  exist  during  all  installation,  repair  and  maintenance  operations
with  this  product.  Therefore,  always  unplug  the  power  cable  and  any  other  cables  which
provide external voltage before performing work.

Warning, ESD Sensitive Device!

Electronic boards and their components are sensitive to static electricity. In order to ensure
product integrity at all times, be careful during all handling and examinations of this product.

1.11. RoHS Commitment

DIGITAL-LOGIC AG is committed to develop and produce environmentally friendly products according to the
Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive (2002/95/EC) and the Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment  (WEEE)  Directive  (2002/96/EC)  established  by  the  European  Union.  The  RoHS  directive  was
adopted in February 2003 by the European Union and came into effect on July 1, 2006. It is not a law but a
directive,  which  restricts  the  use  of  six  hazardous  materials  in  the  manufacturing  of  various  types  of
electronic  and  electrical  equipment.  It  is  closely  linked  with  the Waste  Electrical  and  Electronic  Equipment
Directive (WEEE) 2002/96/EC, which has set targets for collection, recycling and recovery of electrical goods
and is part of a legislative initiative to solve the problem of huge amounts of toxic e-waste.

Each European Union member state is adopting its own enforcement and implementation policies using the
directive as a guide. Therefore, there could be as many different versions of the law as there are states in
the EU. Additionally, non-EU countries like China, Japan, or states in the U.S. such as California may have
their own regulations for green products, which are similar, but not identical, to the RoHS directive.
