    VS1 PRE-INSTALLATION MANUAL About Safety All Nautel transmitters are designed to meet the requirements of EN60215, Safety Requirements for Radio Transmitters. The philosophy of EN60215 is that the removal of any cover or panel that can only be opened using a tool is a maintenance activity, and that any person performing a maintenance activity is expected to be trained for that activity.

    VS1 PRE-INSTALLATION MANUAL Lightning Hazards Before opening the transmitter and touching internal parts, remove and solidly ground the antenna connection. WARNING: It is not enough to ground the antenna terminal with the antenna still connected. Even a small impedance in the ground strap will result in lethal voltages during a lightning strike.
