Warnings and Cautions

Documentation Conventions

For safety, and to achieve the highest levels of performance from the M400 system, always follow
the warnings and cautions in this manual when handling and operating the M400 system.
Warning: Warning notices are used to emphasize that hazardous voltages, currents,
temperatures, or other conditions that could cause personal injury or death exist with this
equipment, or may be associated with its use.
Caution: Caution notices are used where equipment might be damaged if care is not taken or an
operation might have an unexpected outcome.
Note: Notes call attention to information that is especially significant to understanding and
operating the equipment.
Warnings and Cautions
Warning: Do not use the M400 system as the primary navigation system. Use it in conjunction
with other navigation aids and a primary manual navigation system.
Warning: Ensure power is removed before accessing power wires during installation or removal of
system components. Damage to equipment or injury to personnel may result.
Warning: Use of insufficient wire gauge can result in fire.
Warning: The M400 system is not designed to operate in an enclosed environment in the
presence of flammable gases. Failure to follow this warning may result in explosion or fire.
Warning: The M400 camera body is a remotely and automatically controlled device. Ensure
camera motion has been disabled before cleaning surfaces that can cause pinch hazards.
Caution: Do not open the M400 unit for any reason. Disassembly of the M400
(including removal of the cover) can cause permanent damage and will void the warranty.
Caution: Be careful not to leave fingerprints on the M400 optics.
Caution: The M400 requires a power supply of 12 Vdc to 24 Vdc nominal, 5.5 A maximum @
24 Vdc, 11 A maximum @ 12 Vdc. Absolute voltage range: 12 Vdc to 32 Vdc. Operating the
system outside of the specified input voltage range or the specified operating temperature range
can cause permanent damage.
