CAUTION
Burns to skin by a hot camera
During operation, cameras get hot. Touching a hot camera with bare hands may
lead to injuries.
•
For operation, keep the camera temperature below +70 °C.
•
Ensure that instructed persons only handle cameras.
•
Wear protective gloves when touching a heated-up camera.
NOTICE
ESD
The phenomenon is commonly known: when walking on a carpet, we get charged.
Touching a door handle, we get an electric shock. ESD is dangerous for electronic
devices, especially when tools or hands get in contact with connectors. We
recommend measures to avoid damage by ESD:
•
Unpacking: Remove the camera from its anti-static packaging only when your
body is grounded.
•
Workplace: Use a static-safe workplace with static-dissipative mat and air
ionization.
•
Wrist strap: Wear a static-dissipative wrist strap to ground your body.
•
Clothing: Wear ESD-protective clothing. Keep components away from your
body and clothing. Even if you are wearing a wrist strap, your body is
grounded but your clothes are not.
NOTICE
Do not operate the camera beyond the environmental specifications
See environmental specifications limits in the
chapter of this
document. Special care must be taken to maintain a reasonable operating
temperature.
NOTICE
Verify all external connections
Verify all external connections in terms of voltage levels, power requirements,
voltage polarity, and signal integrity prior to powering the device.
