CHAPTER 1: IMPORTANT INFORMATION 

Safety Information 

 
The PicoP

® 

 Evaluation Kit (PEK3) embeds a CLASS 2 LASER PROJECTOR MODULE as defined in IEC60825-1, 2007-

03.

 

The device complies with IEC 60825-1, 2007-03.  The device also complies with 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 except 

for deviations pursuant to Laser Notice No. 50 dated June 24, 2007.

 

 

The following safety labels are affixed at the factory. 

DO NOT REMOVE THESE LABELS 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

Caution & Warnings 

 

Each PEK3 user must read this guide and have it at hand for reference during operation. 

Warnings regarding use and care of the PEK3: 

 

 

 

The PEK3 is a Class 2 Laser Product.  AVOID DIRECT EYE EXPOSURE. 

Do not point the projected image at people, moving vehicles or aircraft. 

Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified in 
this user guide may result in hazardous laser radiation exposure. 

Service & Maintenance 

 

THERE ARE NO OPERATOR SERVICABLE PARTS INSIDE THE PEK3.  

For preventive maintenance or repair of performance-related issues, the system must be 
returned to Microvision. Contact information labeled on the front of this guide to coordinate 
returns. 

The PicoP Display Engine uses internal components that produce Class 2 visible and invisible laser radiation. 

Do not remove label or enclosure around the Projection Module. 
Please do not disconnect the optical module from the electronics module

.  Each PDE module is calibrated and 

optimized for the specific MEMS/Laser combination in the unit.  These unique calibration settings are stored in the PDE's 
electronics and are key inputs into the individual PDE's system performance, image quality, & laser product classification 
rating.  Combining the incorrect boards/optical modules, could damage the mirror.  More importantly, this will invalidate the 
laser product classification certification for the module and will invalidate any warranties that may apply.  
The PicoP Display Engine is Microvision, Inc. Proprietary & Confidential under our Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA).
