· G&D FIBREVision
Installation
The computer module is placed close to the computer to be operated with the
FIBREVision
system. If desired, a separate user console can be optionally connected to
the computer module. The console includes a monitor, a keyboard and a mouse.
Two fibre optics connect the user module to the computer module. The remote con-
sole is connected to this module.
Preparation
1. Ensure that the computer to be connected to the
FIBREVision
system is switched
off. If the computer is provided with keyboard and mouse, unplug the cables of
the input devices from the interfaces.
2. Place the computer module (
FIBREVision-CPU
) close to the computer. Please
mind the maximum cable length of
five
metres between the computer module and
the computer to be connected.
3. Place the user module (
FIBREVision-CON
) close to the remote console. Please
also mind the maximum cable length of
five
metres between the user module and
the devices of the user console.
IMPORTANT:
The devices use components with laser technology which comply
with laser class 1.
They meet the requirements according to DIN EN 60825-1:2001-11, IEC 60825-1
as well as U.S. CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11.
Consider the following safety guidelines regarding this matter:
Avoid eye contact with laser beam

Always connect optical connections or cover them with protection caps
on page 2
Only use G&D certified transmission modules

NOTE:
When choosing a place for the device, please ensure to comply with the
ambient temperature limit (see
Technical data
on page 55 ff.) close to the device.
The ambient temperature limit must not be influenced by other devices.
When installing the devices, make sure to only place a maximum of three devices
directly on top of each other. Therefore, a good circulation of air is enabled and
mutual thermal interference can be avoided. After having installed three devices,
provide for a distance of at least 2 cm.
IMPORTANT:
Mind the additional information on page 46 when installing a com-
puter module or a user module of the
FIBREVision-MC4
variant.
