PROTECT YOURSELF. Follow these precautions:
• Don't touch the outputs of the instrument or any exposed test wiring carrying the
output signals. This instrument can generate hazardous voltages and currents.
• Don't bypass the power cord's ground lead with two-wire extension cords or plug
adaptors.
• Don't disconnect the green and yellow safety-earth-ground wire that connects
the ground lug of the power receptacle to the chassis ground terminal (marked
with
@
or
&, ).
• Don't hold you eyes extremely close to an rt output for a long time. The normally
nonhazardous low-power rt energy generated by the instrument could possible
cause eye injury.
• Don't plug in the power cord until directed to by the installation instructions.
• Don't repair the instrument unless you are a qualified electronics technician and
know how to work with hazardous voltages.
• Pay attention to the WARNING statements. They point out situations that can
cause injury or death.
• Pay attention to the CAUTION statements. They point out situations that can
cause equipment damage.
