User Warnings and Cautions 

 

 
The installation and service instructions in this manual are for use by qualified 

personnel only.  

 

To avoid electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than that contained in 
the operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so. Refer all servicing to 

qualified personnel 

 
This instrument has an auto-ranging line voltage input. Ensure the power voltage is 

within the specified range of 100-240VAC. The ~ symbol, if used, indicates an 

alternating current supply. 

 

 This symbol, wherever it appears, alerts you to the presence of uninsulated, 

dangerous voltage inside the enclosure 

 voltage which may be sufficient to 

constitute a risk of shock. 

 

 This symbol, wherever it appears, alerts you to important operating and 

maintenance instructions. Read the manual. 

 

CAUTION: HAZARDOUS VOLTAGES 

The instrument power supply incorporates an internal fuse. Hazardous voltages 

may still be present on some of the primary parts even when the fuse has blown. If 
fuse replacement is required, replace fuse only with same type and value for 

continued protection against fire. 

 

WARNING: 

The product’s power cord is the primary disconnect device. The s

ocket outlet should 

be located near the device and easily accessible. The unit should not be located such 
that access to the power cord is impaired. If the unit is incorporated into an 

equipment rack, an easily accessible safety disconnect device should be included in 

the rack design. 

 
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not expose this product to rain or moisture. 

This unit is for indoor use only. 

 

This equipment requires the free flow of air for adequate cooling. Do not block the 
ventilation openings on the rear and sides of the unit. Failure to allow proper 

ventilation could damage the unit or create a fire hazard.
