Operator qualifications Working on high-voltage assets can be extremely dangerous. Only authorized personnel who are qualified, skilled and regularly trained in electrical engineering are allowed to operate OMICRON test systems and their accessories. Before starting to work, clearly establish the responsibilities.
Supplementary Sheet. If you do not understand some safety instructions, contact OMICRON before proceeding. Maintenance and repair of the Safety Accessories is only permitted by qualified experts at OMICRON Service Centers (see "Support" on page 48). When handling and operating any Safety Accessory, observe the safety instructions in the User Manual of...
Safety Accessories as part of the related test systems. Table 1: Related documents Title Description Contains safety information and use case examples for the SAA1 User Manual SAA1 Beeper Dongle. Contains safety information and use case examples for the CIBANO 500 Getting Started CIBANO 500 test system.
For customers in EU countries (incl. European Economic Area) OMICRON test sets are subject to the EU Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive 2012/19/EU (WEEE directive). As part of our legal obligations under this legislation, OMICRON offers to take back the test set and ensure that it is disposed of by authorized recycling agents.
The aim of the Safety Accessories described in this document is to increase the safety during operation of OMICRON test systems. Use the Safety Accessories ONLY with compatible main devices of test systems and their accessories. Using other main devices of other test systems may impair the protection and functionalities provided by the Safety Accessory.

VOTANO 100 AND VBO2 SAFETY OUTPUT NOTE! Safety Accessories (SAA1 or SAA2) can be used with VOTANO 100 only by first connecting the VBO2 to the VOTANO 100 and by connecting the Safety Accessory to the SAFETY connector on the VBO2 and connecting the SAB1 as the last Safety Accessory.
VBO2) by using a 9-pin D-SUB connector, which is either integrated into the Safety Accessory (SAA1) itself or by using a safety connector cable, which has 9-pin D-SUB connectors either at both ends of the cable (SAA2) or at only the other end of the cable (SAA3).
Connecting with main devices Use of the main device Safety Connector Dongle(s) OMICRON main devices (excluding VOTANO 100) are delivered with pre-installed Safety Connector Dongles. Some main devices are delivered with one Safety Connector Dongle (CPC 80/100, COMPANO 100) while others are delivered with two Safety Connector Dongles (CIBANO 500, TESTRANO 600). A Safety Connector Dongle is shown in Figure 1 further below.
SAA1 Beeper Dongle Designated use The SAA1 Beeper Dongle generates an acoustic signal when the test system's outputs are activated. Since CIBANO 500*, VOTANO 100, and TESTRANO 600 have an internal beeper, the SAA1 Beeper Dongle is optimized for use with the CPC 80 and the CPC 100.
NOTE! If you remove the SAA1 from the main device, the test system will only work if you plug in the Safety Connector Dongle into the SAFETY connector(s) of the main device.
Figure 3: Fixing the SAA1 Beeper Dongle and the Safety Connector Dongle (example main device: CPC 80/100) 5. Fix the SAA1 Beeper Dongle and the Safety Connector Dongle by turning the locking wheel on both sides of the SAA1 Beeper Dongle and fastening the locking screws on the Safety Connector Dongle.
5. Press the test button SAA1 and verify that the beeper inside the SAA1 does not emit an audio signal while the test button is being pressed. 6. If the SAA1 beeper emitted an audio signal in step 3 and did not emit an audio signal in step 5 it is working normally.
Safety Accessories Supplementary Sheet Disconnection To disconnect the SAA1 from the main device: 1. Make sure that the main device to which the SAA1 is connected to is switched off. WARNING Death or severe injury caused by high voltage or current possible.
