Unpacking the device - Precautions
We suggest that you keep the original packing material. It is designed for reuse (unless
it is damaged during shipping). Using the original packing material ensures that the
device is properly protected during shipping.
If another packaging is used (for returning the equipment for example), Viavi cannot give
warranty on good protection of the equipment.
If needed, you can obtain appropriate packing materials by contacting Technical Assis-
tance Center.
Laser Safety instructions
The provisions contained in two standards define the safety procedures to be observed
both by users and by manufacturers when utilizing laser products:
•
EN 60825-1: 2001 - Safety of laser products – Part 1: Classification of products,
requirements and user guidelines.
•
FDA 21 CFR § 1040.10 - Performance standards for light-emitting products -
Laser products.
Due to the range of possible wavelengths, power values and injection characteristics of
a laser beam, the risks inherent in its usage vary. The laser classes form groups repre-
senting different safety thresholds.
Laser classes
Standards EN 60825-1, Edition 1.2, 2001-08 and FDA21CFR§1040.10:
•
VFL option: Class 2.
Warning labels for the laser classes
Due to the reduced dimensions of the optical modules, it is not possible to attach the
required warning labels to them. In line with the provisions of Article 5.1 of the EN 60825-
1 standard, the laser class identification labels are shown below:
The user must take the necessary precautions concerning the optical output of the
instrument and follow the manufacturer's instructions.
