• Handling the handle without firmly supporting the instrument can be dangerous.
Please take the following precautions.
• Only handle the handle when the instrument is on a stable surface.
• Do not handle the handle when the instrument is tilted.
• Do not place the instrument in any position other than those shown in the above
figures.
Installation Location
Install the instrument in a place that meets the following conditions.
Ambient Temperature and Humidity
Use the instrument in the following environment.
• Ambient temperature: 5°C to 40°C
However, when you want to generate output with high accuracy, operate the
instrument in the 23 °C ± 5°C temperature range.
• Ambient humidity: 20% RH to 80% RH
No condensation should be present.
Note
Condensation may form when moving the GS200 from a low temperature or humidity
environment to a high temperature or humidity environment, or when there is a sudden change
in temperature. In these kinds of circumstances, wait for at least an hour before using the
GS200, to acclimate it to the surrounding environment.
Flat and Even Location
Place the instrument on a flat, even surface. Do not place the instrument on an unstable
or sloped surface.
Well-Ventilated Location
There are inlet holes on the bottom side of the instrument. In addition, there are vent
holes for the cooling fan on the rear panel. To prevent internal overheating, allow for
enough space around the instrument (see the figure below), and do not block the inlet
and vent holes.
