Electromagnetic Compatibility Guidelines

This product was tested and complies with the regulatory requirements and limits for

electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) stated in the product specifications. These requirements

and limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the

product is operated in the intended operational electromagnetic environment.
This product is intended for use in industrial locations. However, harmful interference may

occur in some installations, when the product is connected to a peripheral device or test object,

or if the product is used in residential or commercial areas. To minimize interference with

radio and television reception and prevent unacceptable performance degradation, install and

use this product in strict accordance with the instructions in the product documentation.
Furthermore, any modifications to the product not expressly approved by National Instruments

could void your authority to operate it under your local regulatory rules.

Caution

 

To ensure the specified EMC performance, operate this product only with

shielded cables and accessories.

Note

 

To ensure the specified EMC performance, the length of all I/O cables must

be no longer than 30 m (100 ft).
