viii
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
Compliance
The
'IOMOD10 - Z-Wave Calibration module'
is a CE Approved Product but only when used in
conjunction with an Equinox
‘ISPnano Programming Module’
. It is designed for use in an ESD
controlled environment i.e. development or production. This means, therefore, that the user must
ensure that there is no possibility of damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD). Since the devices
and equipment to which this product is likely to be connected may well themselves be susceptible to
ESD, this should not pose any difficulty.
For example, if you are handling microcontrollers and EEPROMS etc. then you will already be used to
appropriate precautions, such as the use of anti-static mats, wrist straps and so on. You should treat
your
'IOMOD10F - Z-Wave Calibration module'
with the same care as you would these types of
devices. Always ensure that you are not carrying a static charge yourself before handling the product.
Wearing an earthed anti-static wrist strap is recommended.
Equinox has taken great care in designing this product to be compliant with the European EMC
directive. When using the equipment be sure to follow the instructions provided. Although RF
emissions are within prescribed limits, care should be taken if you are using the product near to
sensitive apparatus. If you experience any difficulty please refer to Equinox Technical Support.
ESD Points to remember
•
Work in a static-free environment.
•
Wear an earthed wrist strap when handling either the programmer and/or
any programmable device.
•
Ensure that the PC, programmer and Target system are connected to the
same EARTH (0V) potential.
•
Do NOT plug the ISP cable of the programmer into a Target System when
the Target power is ON.
•
Ensure than any residual charge stored in capacitors on the Target System
has been discharged BEFORE connecting or disconnecting the
programmer or IOMOD10F module.
Warning!
Any damage caused to the programmer by Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) through inadequate
earthing is not covered under the warranty of the product.
