WARNING
For your personal safety, please read this operating manual and
warning thoroughly before using the equipment.
This unit must be installed in such a manner that operator access to
the mains plug is maintained. Where the product is to be rack
mounted, this may be achieved by having access to the
disconnection device for the whole rack.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, it is essential that the unit is
disconnected from the mains supply before removing the cover.
Please also note that the power supply capacitors within this unit can
remain charged even after the mains supply has been disconnected.
It is essential that these capacitors are discharged after the mains
supply has been disconnected and the covers have been removed.
In the event that this unit has been dropped or has suffered an
impact, an electrical safety test must be carried out before
reconnection to the mains supply.
This equipment is not intended for use in explosion hazard
environments. It must be used and stored in studio conditions, such
that the ambient relative humidity does not exceed 80%, nor is the
temperature to be allowed to drop to a level, which would cause dew
point to be reached.
Please ensure that adequate ventilation is provided and that the
ventilation slots are not obstructed. When rack mounting this
equipment, a fan may be required to provide sufficient airflow.
NOTE: When switching on from cold ensure that the STANDBY
switch is in the UP position (red light on). Leave for at least 20
seconds before switching down for normal operation. See
section 2.
