8 Important notices
8.1 Safety instructions
It is recommended to study the instructions below
Do not place the MTi near strong magnetic fields.
Do not use cables or connectors other than described in this manual.
8.2
Absolute maximum ratings
Stresses above Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device.
Shock (any axis):
20000 m/s
2
(2000 g) 0.5 ms (half-sine)
Input Voltage:
-60 V … 34 V
Alternative Input Voltage:
3.3 V +/- 0.1 V
ESD:
8 kV; above 2 kV possibility of data loss and/or temporary
connection loss
Interface inputs:
-25 V … 25 V (RS232 RX)
-11.7 V … 15 V (RS422, RS485 A and B inputs)
-0.3 V …3.6 V (alternative UART)
SyncIn:

-40
C … 85
C
Humidity:
Casing is IP67 (for OEM: 95% max, non-condensing)
Stresses beyond those listed here may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
NOTE: Drops onto hard surfaces can cause shocks of greater than 20000 m/s
2
(2000 g) exceed the
absolute maximum rating of the device. Care should be taken when handling to avoid damage. Drops
causing shock greater than absolute maximum ratings may not destroy the device but will permanently
alter the properties of the physical motion sensors, which may cause the device to become inaccurate.
8.3 Maintenance
The MTi will not require any maintenance if properly used (see also section 8.1 and 8.2). However, if
the Motion Tracker is not functioning according to the specifications please contact Xsens or your local
distributor (
