ABOUT THE MANUAL 

 
This manual is divided into two main sections: 

 

The daily use of the unit is described in chapter 2 "Operation". These instructions are meant for 
users. 

 

The following chapters and appendices are exclusively meant for electricians/technicians. These 
provide a detailed description of all software settings and hardware installation guidance. 

 
This manual describes the standard unit as well as the available options. For additional information, 
please contact your supplier. 
 

A hazardous situation may occur if the F112-A is not used for the purpose it was designed for 
or is used incorrectly. Please carefully note the information in this operating manual 
indicated by the pictograms: 

 

 

A "

warning !

" indicates actions or procedures which, if not performed correctly, may lead to 

personal injury, a safety hazard or damage of the F112-A or connected instruments. 

 

 

A "

caution !

" indicates actions or procedures which, if not performed correctly, may lead to 

personal injury or incorrect functioning of the F112-A or connected instruments. 

 

 

A "note !" indicates actions or procedures which, if not performed correctly, may indirectly 
affect operation or may lead to an instrument response which is not planned.
