Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
Compliance
The 'FS2003 Programmer' is a CE Approved Product. It is designed for use in an ESD controlled
environment i.e. development or production. This means, therefore, that the user must ensure that
there is no possibility of damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD). Since the devices and equipment
to which this product is likely to be connected may well themselves be susceptible to ESD, this should
not pose any difficulty.
For example, if you are handling microcontrollers and EEPROMS etc. then you will already be used to
appropriate precautions, such as the use of anti-static mats, wrist straps and so on. You should treat
your 'FS2003 Programmer' with the same care as you would these types of devices. Always ensure
that you are not yourself carrying a static charge before handling the product. Wearing an earthed
anti-static wrist strap is recommended.
Equinox have taken great care in designing this product to be compliant with the European EMC
directive. When using the equipment be sure to follow the instructions provided. Although RF
emissions are within prescribed limits, care should be taken if you are using the product near to
sensitive apparatus. If you experience any difficulty please refer to Equinox Technical Support.
Warning!
Any damage caused to the programmer by Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) through inadequate
earthing is not covered under the warranty of the product.
4
ESD Points to remember

any programmable device.
Ensure that the PC, programmer and Target system are connected to the
same EARTH (0V) potential.
Do NOT plug the ISP cable of the programmer into a Target System when
