    General dangers in the case of non-observance of the safety instructions The MGC/IGC amplifier system complies with the state of the art and is operationally reliable. If the device is used and operated inappropriately by untrained personnel, residual dangers might develop.
  • Page 15 Residual dangers regarding the measuring system must be specified explicitly. After password-protected setups and operations have been carried through, make sure that potentially connected con- trols remain in a safe state until the MGC/IGC amplifier sys- tem switching behaviour has been checked.
