1 - NOTICES
Only properly trained service personnel may perform
installation and service procedures. (In other words:
electricians, service personnel employed by or active in
an organization, business, or service).
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment
and impair electrical circuitry. ESD damage occurs
when electronic components are improperly handled
and can result in complete or intermittent failures.
Warranty is void if the EDGE System is used in a
manner not specified by the manufacturer.
2 - SYMBOLS
WARNING: Read the following text
carefully; it contains important information
which, if ignored, may cause the controller
to operate improperly.
High Voltage. Hazard of electrical shock.
Functional Ground Terminal. Primarily
used for functional earth terminals which
are generally associated with test and
measurement circuits. These terminals are
not for safety earthing purposes but provide an earth
reference point.
Protective Earth Ground Terminal. Primarily
used for protective earth terminals. These
terminals connect to conductive parts of
a device for the purpose of safety and is intended
to be connected to an external system for protective
grounding.
3 - CONVERSION PROCESS
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage
equipment and impair electrical circuitry.
ESD damage occurs when electronic
components are improperly handled and can result in
