    Products not satisfying these requirements may only be used with special approval of the regulating body in the country where operated. All signal lines connected to imc CANSAS must be shielded and the shielding must be grounded. Note The EMC tests were carried out using shielded and grounded input and output cables with the exception of the power cord.
  • Page 6 The measurement system has been carefully designed, assembled and routinely tested in accordance with the safety regulations specified in the included certificate of conformity and has left imc in perfect operating condition. To maintain this condition and to ensure continued danger-free operation, the user should pay particular attention to the remarks and warnings made in this chapter.

  • Page 7: Important Information

    The device has been carefully designed, assembled and routinely tested in accordance with the pertinent safety regulations and has left imc in perfect operating condition. To maintain this condition and to ensure continued danger-free operation, the user should pay particular attention to the remarks and warnings made in this chapter.
  • Page 8 Note that a imc CANSAS module must be configured before being taken into operation! 1.2.1.5 Guarantee Each device is subjected to a 24-hour "burn-in" before leaving imc. This procedure is capable of recognizing almost all cases of early failure. This does not, however, guarantee that a component will not fail after longer operation.
  • Page 9 Always arrange your cables and signal leads in a safe fashion. Think prevention! Never connect or disconnect signal leads during thunderstorms. © 2016 imc Meßsysteme GmbH imc CANSAS - Getting Started, Doc. Rev. 2.0 R1 - 2016-05-24...
  • Page 10 General 1.2.1.7 General Safety Certain basic rules of safety are always to be followed, even with 'safe' devices such as imc CANSAS. Unintended and/ or inappropriate usage of the device can be dangerous for the operator and/or surrounding persons and, in the worst case, can damage the test object or imc CANSAS itself. We strongly discourage the user from making any modifications to the measurement system whatsoever.
