Guarantee and Compensation
Barco provides aguaranteerelating toperfectmanufacturing aspartofthe legally stipulated terms ofguarantee. On receipt, the purchaser
must immediately inspect all delivered goods for damage incurred during transport, as well as for material and manufacturing faults Barco
must be informed immediately in writing of any complaints.
The period of guarantee begins on the date of transfer of risks, in the case of spec ial systems and softwar
at latest 30 days after the transfer of risks. In the event of justified notice of compliant, Barco can repair the fault or provide a replacement
at its own discretion w ithin an appropriate period. If this measure proves to be impossible or unsuccessful, the purchaser ca n demand a
reduction in the purchase pr ice or cancellation of the contract. All other claims, in particular t
indirectdamage,andalso damage attributedto theope ration of softwareas well as toother services providedbyBarco, being acomponent

If the purchaser or a third p arty carries out modifications or repairs on good delivered by Barco, or if the goods are handled incorrectly,
in particular if the systems are commissioned operated incorrectly or if, after the transfer of risks, the goods are subject to influences not
agreed upon in the contract, all guarantee claims of the purchaser will be rendered invalid. Not inc luded in the guarantee coverage are
system failures which are attributed to programs or special electronic circuitry provided by the purchaser, e.g. interfaces. Normal wear as
well as normal maintenance are not subject to the guarantee provided by Barco either.

•Maximum ambient temperature:
The maximum recommended ambient temperature for this equipment is 40
•Flammable materials:
Keep flammable materials away from the installation(suchascurtains). A lot of energy is transferred intoheat. The installation
should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised. Proper ventilation
must be provided.
•This equipment MUS T be earthed:
In order to protect against risk of electric shock, the installation should be properly grounded. Defeating the purpose of the
grounding type plug will expose you to the risk of electric shock. This apparatus m ust be grounded (earthed) via the supplied
3 conductor AC power cord. (If the supplied power co rd is not the correct variant, consult your dealer.)
•Power system:
It is recommended to use a TN-S power distributionsys

installation should be protected by an appropriate rated disconnect switch, circuit breakers and Ground Fault Current Interrupters. The installation shall be done accordi
given to EN 60364, the standard for electrical installation of buildings. In Germany VDE 0100 should be adhered to.
•Mains cords:

•Use of an extension cord:
If an ex tension cord is used with this product, m ake sure that the total of the am pere ratings on the products plugged into the
extension cord does not exceed the extension c ord ampere rating. Also make sure that the total of all products plugged into
the wall outlet does not exceed 15 amperes.
•Cabinet openings:
Never push objects ofanykindinto this product through cabinet slots as they maytouchdangeroushigh voltage points or short

3.1Installation requirements
Requirements
•The Digitizer should not be placed in a built-in installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.
•When using the unit in a multi-unit rack assembly or closed assembly, the ambient temperature inside the assembly may not
exceed the maximum rated ambient temperature of the Digitizer. The installation should be such that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment in not compromised.
•When building in the Digitizer into a rack with cover door, be aware that a space of 8,5 cm is needed between the indicated
reference and the cover door. T his space is needed to guide the input cables to the inputs.
Image 3-1
A Reference
•The Digitizer will require that air flows freely in vent holes. Blocking these holes will greatly reduce the reliability of the unit and
lead to the possibility of overheating.
•The Digitizer should operate from an AC power source. The Digitizer is equipped with Power Supply Autoranging from 90 to
264 v olt (50–60 Hertz).
•When installed in a rack, the m ounting should be such that no h azardous condition is achieved due to uneven mechanical
loading.
•When the mains switch located on the back of the Digitizer is not accessible due to rack mounting, the socket outlet supplying
the rack shall be installed near the equipment and be easily accessible or a readily accessible dis connect device shall be
incorporated in the fixed wiring. W hen using a rack in an installation is ad visable to log the serial number of the device and to
activate the warranty figure by registering utilizing the included form.
•Do not place the Digitizer on an unstable cart, stand or table. The device may fall, causing serious damage to it.

6.2Cleaning the cabinet
Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Nev er use strong solvents, such as thinner or ben zine, or
abrasive cleaners, since these will damage the cabinet.
How to clean the cabinet
1. U nplug the digitizer from the wall outlet before cleaning.
2. C lean the cabinet with a damp cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with a clothlightlydampenedwithmild detergent solution.
To keep the cabinet looking brand-new, periodically clean it with a soft dry cloth.
