Installing hardware Before doing any installation work, make sure that:
■
The power supply of the host PC is switched off.
■
No external devices are connected to the dSPACE system.
Connecting devices To avoid risk of injury and prevent damage to the hardware:
■
Do not connect any high-voltage devices to the I/O connectors of
the hardware.
■
Do not apply voltages/currents outside the specified ranges to the
connector pins.
■
Do not connect or disconnect any devices while the dSPACE
System is powered up and/or external devices are switched on.
Make sure that the PC and external devices are turned off
beforehand.
Safety Precautions for Using Connector
Panels
To avoid damage to the hardware and to achieve safe and trouble-free
operation, the following guidelines must always be observed:
■
Before connecting a panel to a board, make sure that the PC is
turned off and no external devices are connected to the panel.
■
No chemicals other than alcohol (ethanol or isopropanol) should
be used to remove writing from the panel templates, since they
might damage the permanent print on the templates or even
corrode the panel.
■
Guard against foreign objects (staples, etc.) falling or blowing into
the unit, or liquids being spilled into it.
■
Do not expose the panel to excessive dust or moisture.
