WARNING:
INOX-F15C-ULT3
INOX-F15C-ULT3 and severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the INOX-F15C-ULT3. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is
therefore critical that whenever the INOX-F15C-ULT3 is opened and any of the electrical
components are handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.
Wear an anti-static wristband: Wearing a simple anti-st atic wristband can
help to prevent ESD from damaging any electrical com ponent.
Self-grounding: Before handling any electrical component, touch any
grounded conducting material. During the t im e the electrical component is
handled, frequently touch any conducting materials that are connected to the
ground.
Use an anti-static pad: When configuring or working with an electrical
component, place it on an anti-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD
damage.
Only handle the edges of the electrical component: When handling the
electrical component, hold the electrical c om ponent by its edges.

is not zero, the Watchdog Timer starts counting down . When the timer val ue reaches zero,
the system resets. To ensure that this reset condition does not occur, calling sub-function
2 must periodically refresh the Watchdog Timer. However, the watchdog timer is disabled
if the time-out value is set to zero.
A tolerance of at least 10% must be maintained to avoid unknown routines within the
operating system (DOS), such as disk I/O that can be very time-consuming.
