Training and User Assistance
Maintaining awareness of potentially harmful bioeffects and
being able to recognize contributing conditions is essential to
minimize the risk. Gaining experience with the system and
becoming familiar with controls affecting output by observing
the output display will improve the user’s confidence to
determine the presence of risk and how to reduce it. The user
manual instructions and applications training are the best
methods for learning these basic skills. Get fully acquainted
with the user manual and review it frequently. Contact a
representative at any time to request additional training or
assistance.
