Safety Information
Please read, understand, and follow all safety
information contained in these instructions prior to the
use of this device. Retain these instructions for future
reference.
Intended Use
The SCS WS Aware Monitor is a dual workstation
continuous monitor for operators, ESD worksurfaces
and metal tools. It continuously monitors the
path-to-ground integrity and body voltage of two
operators, as well as the path-to-ground integrity for two
conductive or dissipative worksurfaces and two metal
tools. It also continuously monitors for electromagnetic
interference (EMI) on two metal tools which may cause
electrical overstress (EOS) damage. The WS Aware
Monitor eliminates the need for periodic testing and
record keeping of wrist straps.
The systems must be installed as specified in this user
guide in an indoor commercial/industrial environment,
and have not been evaluated for other uses or locations.
If the equipment is used in a manner not specified
by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the
equipment may be impaired.
Warning
To reduce the risks associated with hazardous voltage
and fire:
• Do not use the power supply if damaged
• Replace power supply if damaged using only SCS
supplied parts.
• Do not modify or attempt to service the power
supply. Return to SCS for service.
• Do not use the WS Aware Monitor or its power
supply outdoors or in wet/humid environments.
• Do not use the WS Aware Monitor or its power
supply outside of the operating conditions listed in
this User Guide.
• Use only a dry cloth when cleaning.
To reduce the risks associated with hazardous voltage:
• Use only the power supply provided by SCS and
specified for the country of use.
• Do not simultaneously power the WS Aware Monitor
with the power supply and the RJ45 data cable.
• Do not position the monitor accessories or other
equipment where unplugging the power supply is
difficult.
• Always locate the power source (socket or outlet)
near the equipment. The power supply plug serves
as the disconnect device.
Caution
To reduce the risks associated with environmental
contamination:
• Dispose of monitor and power supply in accordance
with all applicable local and government regulations.
Notice
To reduce the risk of damage to components or
assemblies being handled:
• Monitor must be checked periodically to verify each
test mode is functioning correctly.
• Ensure proper operation of the monitor by
performing operational verification test as required.
• Always properly ground your tools and dissipative
surfaces to before connecting them to the WS
Aware Monitor.
FCC
This equipment has been tested and found to comply
with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to
Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed
to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference when the equipment is operated in a
commercial environment. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instruction
manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interference
in which case the user will be required to correct the
interference at his own expense.
