care when moving it.

• Place your ViewPanel in a well

ventilated area. Do not place anything on the ViewPanel that prevents adequate dissipation of heat.

• Ensure the area around the ViewPanel

is clean and free of moisture.

• Do not place heavy objects on the

ViewPanel, video cable, or power cord.

FCC Information

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

FCC Warning:

To assure continued FCC compliance, the user must use grounded power supply cord and the provided shielded video interface cable with bonded ferrite cores. If a BNC cable is going to be used, use only a shielded BNC(5) cable. Also, any unauthorized changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this device.

Power Supply Cord USA

For units with 100 - 120V input voltage in the USA, use the following : UL Listed and CSA Certified Type SVT or SJT No. 18/3 AWG rated 125Vac 7 A min. One end terminated in a molded on parallel blade, grounding attachment cap or hooded attachment cap (15A, 125V configuration), other end terminated in a mold-on appliance coupler.

Notice for Germany

The x-rays generated in this unit are shielded sufficiently. High voltage: Max. 30 kV. Also, for ergonomic reasons, we recommend that you do not display blue characters on a dark background. Doing so may produce insufficient contrast that could lead to eye strain.

Notice for Japan

This is a Class B product based on the standard of the Voluntary Control Council for Interference from Information Technology Equipment (VCCI). If this is used near a radio or television receiver in a domestic environment, it may cause radio interference. Install and use the equipment according to the instruction manual.
