Global Specialties specifically warns the user of this instrument that it is intended for
use in a classroom or laboratory environment for the purpose of learning and
experimentation. When building experimental circuits, it may emit interference that will
effect radio and television reception and the user may be required to stop operation until
the interference problem is corrected. Home use of this equipment is discouraged since
the likelihood of interference is increased by the close proximity of neighbors.

CORRECTIVE MEASURES:

Interference can be reduced by the following practices.

1) Install a commercially built RFI power filter in the power line at the point where the
cord enters the unit.

2) Avoid long wires. They act as antennas.

3) If long wires must be used, use shielded cables or twisted pairs which are properly

grounded and terminated.
