TROUBLESHOOTING
!
!
CAUTION
Do not attempt to service an operational Illuminator!
The heat generated by the IR lamp is sufficient to cause SEVERE
BURNS. Before performing any service on or around the 1010T, shut
down the Illuminator and isolate it electrically to prevent accidental
starting. A cool-off period of approximately one hour is required after
shut down. (Even if the housing is cool, the IR lamp may still retain
enough heat to cause injury.)
!
!
CAUTION
Do not look directly into an operational Illuminator!
Since IR light is invisible to the human eye, the only method of verifying
a malfunctioning IR lamp is at the video output location. Before starting
any maintenance work on the 1010T, be certain that the video system (i.e.
cameras, monitors, etc.) is functioning properly.
