Chapter 2 42
The OmniScan MX2 has been tested and found to comply with the radio-frequency
limits applicable to industrial devices, in accordance with the requirements of the
EMC directive. To maintain OmniScan MX2 compliance with the emissions
requirements of the EMC directive, the following conditions must be met:
• All cables used to connect the equipment must have an overall shielding to ensure
electromagnetic compatibility and optimal performance.
• Ferrite clamp filters must be attached to the cables connected to the
OmniScan MX2. For details, see “Ferrite clamp filters” on page 42.
Ferrite clamp filters
Before using the OmniScan MX2, attach the ferrite clamp filters (supplied with the
OmniScan MX2) to the peripheral cables that will be connected to the OmniScan MX2
unit and its modules. The optional peripherals are as follows:
• Olympus UT probes
• Olympus PA probe
• USB devices connected with a USB cable (printers, etc.)
• Ethernet network
• Scanner interface
• Alarm and I/O
If the ferrite clamp filters are not attached, the OmniScan MX2 unit may fail to comply
with the international and European electromagnetic emission specifications.
To attach the clamp filters
• Make sure that the cable is not clamped in between the pawls of the ferrite clamp
filter.
• Attach the ferrite clamp filters as closely as possible to the cable ends. The ferrite
clamp filters are not effective unless they are immediately adjacent to the cable
end connected to the OmniScan MX2.
