Precautions Before Using Ax40 - Panasonic MICRO-IMAGECHECKER AX40 User Manual

PRECAUTIONS BEFORE USING AX40

Installation Environment
Avoid installing the AX40 in the following locations:
• Locations with direct sunlight or environmental temperatures that exceed a range of 0 to 50 °C (a
range of 0 to 40 °C for VGA monitor).
• Locations with a relative humidity exceeding a range of 35%RH to 75%RH (a range of 20%RH to
85%RH for VGA monitor) or locations with a condensing due to a sharp temperature change.
• Locations with an atmosphere containing corrosive gases or flammable gases.
• Locations subject to the main unit to direct vibration or impact.
• Locations with a lot of fine particles, iron filings or salt.
• Locations where the device can become wet with water, oil or chemicals.
• Locations with an atmosphere likely to contain organic solvents such as benzene, paint thinner, and
alcohol as well as strongly alkaline materials such as ammonia and caustic soda.
Static Electricity
In dry environment, there is a risk of accumulation of static electricity, so when there is a need to touch
the equipment, users should always discharge the accumulated static by touching a grounded part of the
equipment first.
Cleaning
Do not use thinners or similar solvents, as they may dissolve parts of the unit and cause colors to run.
Power
Use the insulation power with the protection circuit built in. AX40 power unit is with the non-insulated
circuit, so that applying an abnormal voltage might damage the internal circuit. When using the power
without the protection circuit, supply the power via the protection device such as a fuse.
Power sequence
• Arrange the power sequence so that the AX40 power supply is turned OFF before the input/output
power supply.
• If you turn OFF the input/output power supply before the AX40 power supply, the AX40 unit will detect
an input signal level change and may not run properly.
Before Switching ON the Power
• Pay attentions to the followings when turning ON the power for the first time;
• Confirm no wiring waste or especially any conductive substance is on the printed circuit board when
setting the AX40.
• Confirm that the power wiring, input/output wiring and power voltage are correct.
• Confirm that the fixing and terminal screws are securely tightened.
Before Creating the Product Type Data
• Without fail, initialize the environmental settings before creating the product type data.
