Observe the precautions described below to prevent operation failure, mal-
functions, or undesirable effects on product performance.

Do not install the MS4800 system in the following types of environments:
• Areas exposed to intense interference light, such as direct sunlight
• Areas with high humidity where condensation is likely to occur
• Areas where corrosive gases are present
• Areas exposed to vibration or shock levels higher than in the specification
provisions
• Areas where the product may come into contact with water

Do not use radio equipment such as cellular phones, walkie-talkies, or trans-
ceivers near the MS4800 system.
4-2 Wiring and installation
• Make sure to perform wiring while the power supply is OFF. Otherwise,
the MS4800 system may fail to operate due to the diagnosis function.
• When replacing the cable connectors with other types of connectors, use
connectors that provide a proper grade of protection.
• Properly perform the wiring after confirming the signal names of all the
terminals.

or more in case of series connection) after turning ON the power of the
MS4800 system.
• Be sure to route the MS4800 system cable separate from high-potential
power lines or through an exclusive conduit.
• When using a commercially available switching regulator power supply,
make sure to ground the FG terminal (frame ground terminal).
• Install the emitter and receiver so that their vertical direction should
match.
