___________________________________________________________________
Proceed as follows to install this covering
(cf. Figure 6):
- Insert the metal covering on either side into
the slit between the viewing aperture and
the housing.
- Hold the metal firmly by the recessed grips
with one hand.
- Bend the metal with the other hand and let
it snap into the opposite slit.
To remove the metal covering, simply grasp
the recessed grips and pull it out.
However, closing the light
admission opening of the unit
increases the risk of instrument
myopia. This must be taken into account
when evaluating the examination results.
Figure 6 - Installing the metal covering
Avoid the vicinity of heating units or sources
of moisture which might enter the unit.
To put the unit into operation for the first
time, connect the control unit (or the serial
cable of the PC) to the socket (Figure 2, No.
9).
Connect the mains cable (to No. 8 in Figure
2).
Switch on the mains switch (Figure 2, No.
10). The unit is ready for use after a brief,
automatic self- test.
The LCD module, the work area light, and
the light in the mains switch light up to show
readiness for use.
6.3. Instructions for Transport and Storage
A carrying bag is available for purposes of
transportation, e.g. for mobile use. If you
have decided not to acquire this, please
transport the unit only in its original packing
in order to avoid unnecessary damage and
expenses.
Avoid shocks when relocating the unit, since
they can have a negative effect on
calibrations.
Inspect the unit for damage after every
relocation. Do not under any circumstances
attempt to use a damaged unit, but please
contact our service personnel.
If you keep the unit in an automobile during
the cold season of the year, its optical
components may become fogged with
condensation after being brought into much
warmer surroundings.
Please give the unit time to adjust to the
new surroundings before turning it on.
The conditions prescribed for transportation
and storage by IEC Norm 601-1 are:
- Surrounding temperature: -40° C to
+70°C.
- Relative humidity: 10% to 100%
including condensation.
- Air pressure: 500 hPa to 1060 hPa
If the unit is kept in its corresponding
packing, these values apply for a period of
15 weeks maximum.
