Safety Considerations
This mainframe is a Safety Class 1 instrument, which means that it has a protective earth terminal. That terminal must be
connected to earth ground through a power source equipped with a 3-wire ground receptacle.
Refer to the safety summary page at the beginning of this manual for general safety information. Before installation or
operation, check the mainframe and review this manual for safety markings and instructions. Safety information for specific
procedures is located at the appropriate places in this manual.
