Symbols for certifications and compliance are on page 78. : This key turns the tester on and off. Table 1. International Electrical Symbols Warning: Risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury. Warning or Caution: Risk of damage or destruction to equipment or software. See explanations in the manuals.
riešenia na presné meranie Chapter 1: Get Acquainted Safety Information Do not use the tester if it is damaged. Inspect the tester before use. Do not open the case; no user-serviceable parts are inside. Do not modify the tester. If this equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment can possibly be impaired.
DSX CableAnalyzer Users Manual riešenia na presné meranie Fluke Networks recommends that you save no more than one day of test results on a flash drive. 4 Do not operate portable transmitting devices, such as walkie-talkies and cell phones, during a cable test. Doing so can cause errors in test results. Do not twist, pull on, pinch, crush, or make kinks in the cables on the permanent link adapters. See Figure 9 on page 25. http://www.elso.
