Operating the Unit
Warning
To avoid the risk of injury or death, always observe the following precautions
before initializing the unit:
•
If using a voltage-reducing autotransformer to power the unit, ensure that
the common terminal connects to the earthed pole of the power source.
•
Willfully interrupting the protective earth connection is prohibited.
•
Never look into the end of an optical cable connected to an optical output
device that is operating. Laser radiation is invisible, and direct exposure can
severely injure the human eye. For more information, see the user's manual
of the laser source in use.
•
Turning off the power to the device does not always block the externally
supplied radiation to the connector at the output of the unit.
•
Do not use the unit outdoors.
•
To prevent potential fire or shock hazard, do not expose the unit to any
source of excessive moisture.
•
Do not operate the unit when its covers or panels have been removed.
•
Do not interrupt the protective earth grounding. Any such action can lead to
a potential shock hazard that can result in serious personal injury.
