A. Appendix: Declaration of Conformity
The xDAP products are intended to be used in an industrial or controlled laboratory
environment. They are not intended to be used in residential or commercial
environments.
Installations must provide 3-wire AC power with an earth ground common to the host
computer system and the xDAP units, as discussed in Chapter 5 of this document, in
order to meet the IEC61326 EMC requirements as set forth in the applicable EMC
directives.
NOTE:
xDAP products are used in combination with separate equipment provided by
the system user or system integrator. It is the responsibility of the system user or system
integrator to ensure that any system using an xDAP product is compliant to all relevant
standards.
NOTE:
This equipment was found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital
device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules (USA), and to ICES-003 (Canada). Cet
appareil numérique de la classe A est conforme à la norme NMB-003 (du Canada). The
class A limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause
harmful interference, in which case the user will be required to correct the interference
at his or her own expense.
NOTE: The RoHS directive (
Restrictions on Hazardous Substances
) from the European
Union applies to products categorized in the WEEE directive (
Waste from Electrical and
Electronic Equipment
), which was intended to guide further standards for recycling
used electronic equipment. WEEE defines 10 product categories in its Annex 1A. The
RoHS directive is not mandatory for products in category 9,
Monitoring and control
instruments
, which is the category covering xDAP products. While this means that the
xDAP products are suitable for use within the European Union, policies of individual
organizations, or constraints on systems where Microstar products could be used, might
demand full conformance to the RoHS directive. Microstar Laboratories is committed to
providing products that conform to RoHS requirements, and xDAP products that fully
conform will be indicated clearly.
