Monarch Instrument • IllumiNova™ Stroboscope User Manual
SAFEGUARDS AND PRECAUTIONS
•
Read and follow all instructions in this manual carefully, and retain this manual for
future reference.
•
The contents of this manual are correct at the time of issue. The contents may
change at any time without prior noti
fi
cation. This is due to continuous develop-
ments to the stroboscope and its functionality.
•
Do not use this instrument in any manner inconsistent with these operating instruc-
tions or under any conditions that exceed the environmental speci
fi
cations stated.
•
Certain strobe frequencies can trigger epileptic seizures in those prone to that type
of attack.
OPTICAL RADIATION
Users should not stare directly at the light source.
Intense light sources have a high secondary blinding e
ff
ect. A temporary
reduction in visual acuity and afterimages can occur, leading to irritation,
annoyance, visual impairment, and even accidents - depending on the situation.
•
Always consider the use of light
fi
ltering and darkening protective eye wear and be
fully aware of surrounding setups when viewing intense light sources to minimize or
eliminate such risks to avoid accidents related to temporary blindness.
•
Prolonged exposure to the light can cause headaches in some people.
HIGH VOLTAGE
Parts inside the strobe carry the risk of electric shock. Contact with live
electrical components can cause shock, serious injury, or death from
electrocution. Use a properly grounded power source.
•
There are no user serviceable parts in this instrument. Refer service to a quali
fi
ed
technician.
•
Objects viewed with this product may appear to be stationary when in fact they are
moving at high speeds. Always keep a safe distance from moving machinery and do
not touch the target.
•
Do not allow cables extending from unit to come into contact with rotating
machinery, as serious damage to the equipment, or severe personal injury or death
may occur as a result.
•
This instrument may not be safe for use in certain hazardous environments, and
serious personal injury or death could occur as a result of improper use. Please refer
to your facility’s safety program for proper precautions.
