For Safety

WARNING

• ALWAYS refer to the Operation

Manual when working near locations at which the alert mark shown on the left is attached. If the advice in the Operation Manual is not followed there is a risk of personal injury or reduced equipment performance. The alert mark shown on the left may also be used with other marks and descriptions to indicate other dangers.

• Overvoltage Category

This equipment complies with overvoltage category II defined in IEC 61010. DO NOT connect this equipment to the power supply of overvoltage category III or IV.

MT9090A/MU909011A Network Master User’s Guide v

Repair

• Laser radiation warning

• NEVER look directly into

the cable connector on the equipment nor into the end of a cable connected to the equipment. There is a risk of injury if laser radiation enters the eye.

• The Laser Safety label is

attached to the equipment for safety use as indicated in “Laser Radiation Markings and Laser Aperture” on page xiv.

• Only qualified service personnel

with a knowledge of electrical fire and shock hazards should service this equipment. This equipment cannot be repaired by the operator. DO NOT attempt to remove the equipment covers or unit covers or to disassemble internal components. There are highvoltage parts in this equipment presenting a risk of severe injury or fatal electric shock to untrained personnel. In addition, there is a risk of damage to precision components.

Calibration • he performance-guarantee seal

verifies the integrity of the equipment. To ensure the continued integrity of the equipment, only Anritsu service personnel, or service personnel of an Anritsu sales representative, should break this seal to repair or calibrate the equipment. Be careful not to break the seal by opening the equipment or unit covers.If the performance-guarantee seal is broken by you or a third party, the performance of the equipment cannot be guaranteed.

Replacing

Battery

• When replacing the battery, use

the specified battery and insert it with the correct polarity. If the wrong battery is used, or if the battery is inserted with reversed polarity, there is a risk of explosion causing severe injury or death.

MT9090A/MU909011A Network Master User’s Guide vii

Battery Fluid • DO NOT short the battery

terminals and never attempt to disassemble the battery or dispose of it in a fire. If the battery is damaged by any of these actions, the battery fluid may leak. This fluid is poisonous. DO NOT touch the battery fluid, ingest it, or get in your eyes. If it is accidentally ingested, spit it out immediately, rinse your mouth with water and seek medical help. If it enters your eyes accidentally, do not rub your eyes, rinse them with clean running water and seek medical help. If the liquid gets on your skin or clothes, wash it off carefully and thoroughly.

Battery

Disposal

• DO NOT expose batteries to

heat or fire. Do not expose batteries to fire. This is dangerous and can result in explosions or fire. Heating batteries may cause them to leak or explode.

viii MT9090A/MU909011A Network Master User’s Guide

LCD • This instrument uses a Liquid

Crystal Display (LCD). DO NOT subject the instrument to excessive force or drop it. If the LCD is subjected to strong mechanical shock, it may break and liquid may leak.

This liquid is very caustic and poisonous.

DO NOT touch it, ingest it, or get in your eyes. If it is ingested accidentally, spit it out immediately, rinse your mouth with water and seek medical help. If it enters your eyes accidentally, do not rub your eyes, rinse them with clean running water and seek medical help. If the liquid gets on your skin or clothes, wash it off carefully and thoroughly.

Laser Safety

Class 1and 3R indicate the danger degree of laser radiation specified below according to IEC 60825-1:200

Class 1: Lasers that are safe under reasonably foreseeable

conditions of operation, including the use of optical instruments for intrabeam viewing.

MT9090A/MU909011A Network Master User’s Guide ix

CAUTION

Class 3R: Lasers that emit in the wavelength range from

302.5 to 10

nm where direct intrabeam viewing is potentially hazardous but the risk is lower than for Class 3B lasers.

Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

The use of optical instruments with this product will increase eye hazard.

x MT9090A/MU909011A Network Master User’s Guide

WARNING

Before using this instrument, always ensure that the Laser On icon is displayed when the optical output switch is turned on. See Figure 4-19 on page 4-25. If the icon is not displayed, the equipment may be faulty and for safety reasons should be returned to an Anritsu service center or representative for repair.

The lasers in this equipment are classified as Class 1 and Class 3R according to the IEC 60825-1:2007 standard.
