Precautions
Before installing, setting up or operating this equipment, make sure that you have read
and fully understand all of this section and the “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS” at
the front of this manual.
This equipment is supplied by a mains voltage that can cause electric shock injury!
The following must be observed in order to maintain safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
performance.
Safety warnings
Signal 0V is connected internally to the
chassis.
To electrically isolate the equipment,
switch off both mains on/off switches at
the rear of unit, one after the other. Make
sure that the power at the mains outlets is
off, and then disconnect both mains cables
from the mains outlets.
To avoid electrical shock do not remove
covers.
The power supplies - even the DC ones -
have a high current!
General precautions
In the event of ground loop problems,
disconnect the signal screen at one end of the
connecting cables. Note that this can only be
done when the equipment is used within a
balanced system.
Do not remove, hide or deface any warnings or
cautions.
Power
The power supplies contain LETHAL VOLTAGES
greatly in excess of the mains voltage and that
its rails can produce extremely large currents
that could burn out equipment and wiring if
shorted.
The internal power supplies are of the switch
mode type that automatically senses the
incoming mains voltage and will work where the
nominal voltage is in the range 100VAC to
240VAC.
Each mains inlet is to be sourced from its own
separate wall-mounted mains outlet socket.
Otherwise, their mains sources must be suitably
distributed so as to meet local safety
regulations.
Two mains inlets are provided on the rear panel.
The correct leads for connection in the area to
which the unit was shipped are supplied with the
unit. The equipment should only be plugged
into the mains outlets using the supplied leads.
When removing the equipment’s electric plugs
from the outlets, always hold the plug itself and
not the cable. Pulling out the plug by the cable
can damage it.
Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet
hands.
When switching the unit on/off, switch the
mains power switches on/off one at a time. Do
not switch them on/off simultaneously.
Handling the equipment
Completely isolate the equipment electrically
and disconnect all cables from the equipment
before moving it.
When lifting or moving the equipment, always
take its size and weight into consideration. If
necessary, use suitable lifting equipment or
transporting gear, or sufficient additional
personnel.
Do not insert your fingers or hand in any gaps or
openings on the equipment, for example, vents.
Avoid inserting or dropping foreign objects, such
as paper, plastic, metal etc., into any gaps or
openings on the equipment, for example, vents.
If this happens, turn off the power immediately
and unplug the power from the AC outlets.
Then have the equipment inspected by the
manufacturer's qualified service personnel.
