Meanings of Signal Words In this manual, precautions are indicated using the following symbols and signal words to ensure safe use of the V500-R521B2/C2. The precautions indicated by these symbols and signal words are important for safety and must be observed.
Do not disassemble this bar code reader. Laser beam may be scattered around when it is disassembled. This Bar Code Reader uses a laser as the light source. Lasers are classified on IEC standard (IEC 60825-1). V500-R521B2/R521C2 Wavelength 650 nm Peak power 1 mW max.
■ Other Precautions • If the product becomes extremely hot, or abnormal odors or smoke occurs, stop using the product immediately, turn OFF the power, and consult with your OMRON representative. • Dispose of the product as industrial waste.
• When high frequency wave such as ultrasonic welding machine is used, insulate it using auxiliary insulation plate to avoid malfunction due to induction current. • S82K-00705 (made by OMRON Corporation) is recommended for the driving power supply of the bar code reader.
