The ground (GND) conductors of the connecting cables* connect
in common to the Model 8910 chassis ground (they are not
isolated). Care is therefore necessary to ensure that there is no
potential difference between the instrument chassis ground and
the ground of any connecting device. Otherwise, the instrument
or connecting device could be damaged. Refer to “Power
Sources” below.
Power Sources
The ground (GND) conductors of connecting cables* connect in
common to the Model 8910 chassis ground (they are not
isolated). Therefore, supplying power from different sources to
the instrument and a connecting device could cause electric
shock and equipment damage. To avoid these hazards, power
should always be supplied from the same source.
Even when power is supplied from the same source, as a result
of wiring, potential difference between grounds can result in
current flow through the connecting cables* that could damage
the equipment.

Usage Precautions for the CD-R
• Always hold the disc by the edges, so as not to make fingerprints on
the disc or scratch the printing.
• Never touch the recorded side of the disc. Do not place the disc
directly on anything hard.
• Do not wet the disc with volatile alcohol or water, as there is a
possibility of the label printing disappearing.
• To write on the disc label surface, use a spirit-based felt pen. Do not
use a ball-point pen or hard-tipped pen, because there is a danger of
scratching the surface and corrupting the data. Do not use adhesive
labels.
• Do not expose the disc directly to the sun's rays, or keep it in
conditions of high temperature or humidity, as there is a danger of
warping, with consequent loss of dat a.
• To remove dirt, dust, or fingerprints from the disc, wipe with a dry
cloth, or use a CD cleaner. Always wipe radially from the inside to
the outside, and do no wipe with circular movements. Never use
abrasives or solvent cleaners.

(b) Connect pin 3 (CAN_GND) of the 9713-01 CAN Cable to the
ground of the device to be connected.
Note: In method (b) above, because of wire length and CAN cable
wiring conditions, some potential difference may remain
between grounding points, so we recommend (a) as the
preferred method.

2.3 Connection Procedure
The following diagram shows the connection points of the cables and cords to
be connected to the 8910 CAN ADAPTER.
The instrument does not output signals (including response bits) to the CAN
bus. Therefore, when onl y one device connected to the bus in additio n to
the 8910, communication is not possible since response bits cannot be
exchanged. Therefore, be sure to connect the bus to which the 8910 is
connected with two or more devices to enable communication.
To prevent an electric shock accident, confirm that the white or
red portion (insulation layer) inside the cable is not exposed. If a
color inside the cable is exposed, do not use the cable.
Connecting to the Analog Output
1. Align the BNC connector with the guide groove of the unit output
connector, and turn clock wise while pressing in to lock the connector.
2. To remove from the instrument, turn the BNC connector
counterclockwise to release the lock, then pull it.
