CAUTION
CAUTION
CAUTION
The mounting location should satisfy the following conditions:
Sparate from radio transmitter, radar, direction finder (at least 3m). Locate the equipment away from air conditioner vents. Keep the equipment out of direct sunlight. Vibration should be minimal. The location should be free of water spray.
Do not install this unit on the overhead.
Do not use the cable having a diameter greater than 11.7 mm.
CAUTION
Ground the equipment cable armor to prevent mutual interference and electrical shock.
Observe the following compass safe distances to prevent deviation of a magnetic compass:

POWER LED: Lights when the power is
supplied. IN1 LED: Blinks when data is input. IN2 LED: Blinks when data is input.
Note: You can confirm working of output port
(by LED) by connecting it to the other input port. (Refer to schematic diagram.)
