Safety Considerations
11
Cleaning
Disconnect the IMX8 Multiplexer from all power sources prior to cleaning.
Use a cloth
lightly
dampened with either clean water or water containing a mild detergent to clean the outside
of the IMX8 Multiplexer enclosure. Alternatively, you can use isopropyl alcohol. Do not use a wet rag or allow
fluid to enter the IMX8 Multiplexer enclosure. Do not immerse the IMX8 Multiplexer in any type of cleaning
fluid (including water). Do not use any abrasive cleaners.
Service
Your IMX8 Multiplexer has no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer all service to a qualified service technician.
RF Warning
Your IMX8 Multiplexer generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy. The radiated levels are low
enough that the IMX8 Multiplexer should not create an interference problem in most industrial laboratory
environments. The IMX8 is likely to cause radio-frequency interference if operated in a residential
environment.
Electrical Transient Sensitivity
Your IMX8 Multiplexer was designed to offer reasonable immunity from electrical transients. However, in
severe cases, the IMX8 could malfunction or even suffer damage from electrical transients. If you are having
problems in this regard, the following steps may help:
If the problem is static electricity (sparks are apparent when you touch the IMX8):
Placing your IMX8 on a static-control work surface may help. Static-control work surfaces are now
generally available from computer-supply houses and electronics-tool suppliers. An antistatic floor mat
may also help, particularly if a carpet is involved in generating the static electricity.
Air ionizers or even simple air humidifiers can reduce the voltage available in static discharges.
If the problem is AC power-line transients (often from large electrical motors near the IMX8):
Try plugging your IMX8 into a different AC-power branch circuit.
Plug your IMX8 into a power-line surge suppressor. Inexpensive surge suppressors are now generally
available because of their use with computer equipment.
Warning:
Never operate the IMX8 Multiplexer with any cover or panel on the chassis
open. Dangerous voltages may be present at several points within the IMX8 Multiplexer chassis, including
PC board traces. Always remove the power connection before opening the IMX8 Multiplexer case.
Warning:
The IMX8 Multiplexer is not designed for operation in conditions where liquid
water may enter the chassis, or water vapor may condense within the chassis. Operation of a IMX8
Multiplexer that has water within the chassis can create a safety hazard, which could result in personal
injury or death.
