Setting Up the Instrument
To properly set up the Ectane
®
2:
1. Remove the instrument from its transportation case.
2. Position the instrument on a level and stable surface.
You can position it horizontally or vertically.
Important Regardless of how you position the instrument, you must always have a minimum
clearance of 10 cm (4 in.) on all sides of the instrument. Always position the
instrument away from heat sources. This ensures proper heat dissipation while the
instrument is in use.
WARNING!
Never use the instrument when it is upside down (batteries on top). This
position prevents the batteries from properly dissipating heat and can lead
the Ectane 2 to enter its power safe mode. For details about the power safe
mode, see “Environmental Conditions” on page 41.
CAUTION
When in use, and depending on the loaded setup, the instrument can
generate a non-negligible amount of heat. It should not cause any kind of
harm, but can prove uncomfortable to the touch. Therefore, when moving the
instrument, use the carrying handle.
