Install the instrument so that the detachable power cord is readily
identifiable and is easily reached by the operator. The detachable
power cord is the instrument disconnecting device. It disconnects
the mains circuit from the mains supply before other parts of the
instrument. The front panel switch is only a standby switch and is
not a LINE switch. Alternatively, an externally installed switch or
circuit breaker (which is readily identifiable and is easily reached by
the operator) may be used as a disconnecting device.
Always use the three-prong AC power cord supplied with this
instrument. Failure to ensure adequate earth grounding by not using
this cord may cause instrument damage.
This instrument has autoranging line voltage input. Be sure the
supply voltage is within the specified range.
Use of controls or adjustment or performance of procedures other
than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation
exposure.
Refer to the Tunable Laser Modules User's Guide for complete
laser safety information.
Do NOT, under any circumstances, look into the optical output or
any fiber/device attached to the TLS output while the laser is in
operation.
This system should be serviced only by authorized personnel.
Do not enable the laser unless fiber or an equivalent device is
attached to the optical output connector.
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other
than those specified herein can result in hazardous radiation
exposure.
