ATTENTION
!
An incorrectly applied or installed product can 
result in component damage or a reduction in 
product life. Wiring or application errors, such as 
undersizing or inadequate DC supply, or excessive 
ambient temperatures can result in a malfunction.
The Encoder Signal Reference Simulator contains 
ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) sensitive parts and 
assemblies. Static control precautions are required 
when installing, testing, servicing, or repairing this 
assembly. Component damage can result if ESD 
control procedures are not followed. If you are not 
familiar with static control procedures, refer to 
Allen-Bradley publication 8000-4.5.2, Guarding 
Against Electrostatic Damage or any other 
applicable ESD Protection Handbook.
