3.2 Attaching the Connector Adapter
Procedure
WARNING
Always turn the power OFF before replacing the connector adapter. The instrument has
a built-in reference light source for wavelength calibration (when the built-in light source
specification is -L1), and infrared light is always being output from the optical output
connector. Never look into the optical output connector. Infrared light entering the eyes can
cause severe injury and loss of vision.
CAUTION
• As there may be dust adhering to calibration output, be sure to clean it before attaching the
connector adapter.
• Do not exhale or blow compressed air into the monochromator from the optical input.
Doing so may allow dust or other materials to enter the monochromator, adversely affecting
its optical performance. Also, if debris is adhering to the optical components inside the
monochromator when a strong light source is input, the monochromator may be damaged.
• When attaching or removing the connector adapter, carefully insert it perpendicularly to the
ferrule so as not to damage the ferrule end.
• Moving the connector adapter to the right or left or inserting it forcefully can damage the
ferrule or the connector adapter.

AVERTISSEMENT
Toujours éteindre l’avant de remplacer l’adaptateur de connecteur.
Cet instrument dispose d’une source de lumière de référence intégrée pour les ajustements
d’alignement. La lumière infrarouge est toujours émise depuis le connecteur de sortie optique.
Ne regardez jamais directement dans le connecteur de sortie optique. La lumière infrarouge
risquerait de gravement vous blesser ou de provoquer une perte de vision.
