EPOCH 1000 Series Hardware Features 35
The door of the computer connection compartment is kept closed by two thumb
screws. You can also use a coin or a screwdriver to manipulate these thumb screws as
needed.
Do not expose the instrument to harsh and wet environments while the computer
connection compartment door is opened. To prevent connector corrosion and
damage to the instrument, keep the computer connection compartment door
closed and sealed when no cable is connected.
1.5 Various Hardware Features
The following sections describe various hardware features.
1.5.1 Removable Rubber Handle
The EPOCH 1000 Series features a removable rubber handle to ease transportation
(see Figure 1-1 on page 20). This rubber handle is secured to each side of the
instrument with four flat-head shoulder screws. This rubber handle can be removed
using a screwdriver if necessary.
1.5.2 Instrument Stands
The EPOCH 1000 Series features two articulating pipe stands for variable viewing
angles (see Figure 1-13 on page 36). Each stand is attached to the instrument with two
hard pivot blocks, and has been dipped into a high friction coating for resistance to
sliding during use. Each stand is bent in the center to easily accommodate being
placed on a curved surface.
One EPOCH 1000 Series pipe stand is located on the back of the instrument, attached
to the battery compartment cover (see Figure 1-1 on page 20). This pipe stand allows
for steep viewing angles. The second EPOCH 1000 Series pipe stand is located
underneath the front of the instrument. This is a smaller pipe stand and allows for
shallow viewing angles.
