General Safety  

CAUTION:  It is essential that all instructions in this manual be followed to
ensure proper operation of the equipment and safety of operating person-
nel.  Use of equipment not specified herein, may impair protection provid-
ed by equipment.  The use of this symbol is used throughout manual to
highlight important safety issues.  Please pay particular attention to these
items.

Electrical Shock Caution

Certain LV800 models are powered with HIGH VOLTAGE.  No operator
serviceable parts are inside.  All servicing is to be performed by qualified
personnel.  Each MK-2e is provided with a "protective conductor terminal"
which shall be terminated to earth ground potential (See Electrical
Installation).  This product's design complies with EN61010-1 installation
category II and pollution degree 2.

Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)

The LV800 was tested and found to comply with the standards listed
below.  The LV800 should not be used in residential or commercial envi-
ronments.  Compliance to EMC standards was demonstrated by means of
a test setup using the following installation methods.

1)

LV800 enclosure was connected to earth ground (protective 
earth).

2)

No specific wiring convention was used to supply power or 
to retrieve output signal from the LV800.
