Environmental Considerations
• The Imaging Station and the Image Processor Controller are sensitive to
sudden thermal or humidity changes. Do not locate them next to win-
dows, heaters, air conditioners, HVAC vents or doors that are frequently
opened and shut.
• During operation, the Imaging Station is sensitive to vibrations. It should
be placed on a sturdy flat surface away from centrifuges, vortexors or
any equipment that may cause vibrations. Keep away from other envi-
ronmental activity, such as constant foot traffic, proximity to elevators or
doors that are frequently open and shut.
