Ensure that no static discharge occurs while handling the 
board or while connecting/disconnecting the external cable. 

Ensure that the connection cable is properly connected. It must be 
seated firmly on the D-Sub connector and must be tightened with 
both screws, otherwise proper operation of the board cannot be 
guaranteed. 

 

1.1.2  Improper Application 

PC plug-in boards for the PCI- or CompactPCI-bus may not be taken 
into operation outside of the PC. Never connect the devices with 
voltage-carrying parts, especially not with mains voltage.  

Make sure that no contact with voltage-carrying parts can happen 
by the external wiring of the device. As a basic principle, all 
connections should only be made or removed in a powered-down 
state. 

 

1.1.3  Unforseeable Misapplications 

The device is not suitable to be used as a children’s toy, in the 
household or under unfavourable environmental conditions (e.g. in 
the open). Appropriate precautions to avoid any unforeseeable 
misapplication must be taken by the user. 

 

1.1.4  Warning 

The device was developed and produced in accordance to the EMC 
low-voltage-directive 73/23/EWG. When putting the device into 
operation, especially with voltages greater than 42 V, please follow 
the appropriate standards, installation instructions and national 
safety standards. Meilhaus Electronic GmbH assumes no 
responsibility for damage in case of faulty installation, operation or 
handling.
