7.1 Requirements for Compliance with the EMC Directive

The EMC Directive specifies that products placed on the market must be so
constructed that they "do not cause excessive electromagnetic interference
(emissions)" and "are not unduly affected by electromagnetic interference (immunity)".
Section 7.1.1 through Section 7.1.4 summarize the precautions on compliance with the
EMC Directive of the machinery constructed with the Motion controllers.
These precautions are based on the requirements and the standards of the regulation,
however, it does not guarantee that the entire machinery constructed according to the
descriptions will comply with above-mentioned directive. The method and judgement
for complying with the EMC Directive must be determined by the person who
constructs the entire machinery.
