Where these symbols appear in the manual, refer to the text for the
precautions to be taken.
2.1
Heat
Ensure the RTxxx is mounted correctly (see
), and that you do not exceed any of the ratings for the unit (see
Section 1.1, Specifications and ratings
At its maximum ratings, the RTxxx’s enclosure can exceed 65°C which
is sufficient to cause a burn if touched. Place in a position where
personnel cannot accidentally touch it and ensure there is a free flow
of air around the unit.
2.2
Electrical
The RTxxx produces high energy pulses. Take care to connect the
outputs correctly and protect the output wiring and load from any
short-circuits. When switched off, energy remains stored in the RTxxx
for about 15 seconds.
The RTxxx does not have complete electrical isolation of inputs
(including triggering and communications ports) and outputs,
therefore, please observe the following guidance:
Computer equipment that is connected to the communication or trig-
ger ports must be internally powered or separated from mains elec-
tricity by double insulation/reinforced isolation or be approved to IEC
60950-1 standard. All other equipment connected to the triggers or
other ports must also have double insulation/reinforced isolation pro-
tection from the mains supply.
