For additional information about input modules, their connections and
measurement precautions, refer to the Input Module Guide.
Before Connecting
Before turning power on
• Before turning the instrument on, make sure the supply voltage matches
that indicated on the its power connector. Connection to an improper
supply voltage may damage the instrument and present an electrical haz-
ard.
• To avoid electrical accidents and to maintain the safety specifications of
this instrument, connect the power cord only to a 3-contact (two-conduc-
tor + ground) outlet.
Installing and removing input modules
• To avoid electric shock accident, before removing or replacing an input
module, confirm that the instrument is turned off and that the connection
cords are disconnected.
• The mounting screws must be firmly tightened or the input module may
not perform to specifications, or may even fail.
• To avoid the danger of electric shock, never operate the instrument with
an input module removed. To use the instrument after removing an input
module, install a blank panel over the opening of the removed module.
Using an Optional Printer
When the instrument is not to be used for a long time, or when transport-
ing
To avoid straining some parts of the printer, and to prevent dirt adhering to the
print head, set the print head to its lowered position (so that the print head rests
against the print roller).
After storing the printer without use for a long time, inspect the following before
use:
1. Move the head raising lever up and down.
2. Perform test printing (printer check) three or four times.
When printing
• Avoid slow printing as much as possible in hot or humid environments. Other-
wise, printer life may be severely shortened.
• Please use only the specified recording paper. Using non-specified paper may
not only result in faulty printing, but printing may become impossible.
• If the recording paper is skewed on the roller, paper jams may occur.
If the
recording paper is skewed on the roller, paper jams may result.
• Printing is not possible when the recording paper is loaded upside-down.
Refer to "3.3 Loading Recording Paper (With a Printer Module Installed)" (⇒ p.
42) for printing precautions.
