2.0: Safety Summary

This Equipment is designed as Safety Class I

apparatus to comply with EN61010-1.

Service Safety

This equipment has been designed and tested to

meet the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive

(1997) and has been supplied in a safe condition.

This manual contains information and warnings that

must be followed by the user to ensure safe

operation and to retain the apparatus in a safe

condition.

Terms in this Manual

WARNING statements identify conditions or

practices that could result in personal injury or loss

of life.

CAUTION statements identify conditions or practices

that could result in damage to the equipment or

other property.

Symbols in this Manual

This symbol indicates where applicable

cautionary or other information is to be found.

Power source

Apply no more than 265V rms (AC) between supply

conductors or conductor and ground.

2.0: Safety Summary

M-3482 02/99DR601

2.0: Safety Summary (continued)

WARNING: Do not operate in an explosive

atmosphere

WARNING: Do not remove covers or panels

To avoid personal injury, do not remove covers and

panels. Do not operate the equipment without the

covers and panels fitted. There are no internal

adjustments required during commissioning the

equipment.

Warning: Danger arising from loss of ground

During a fault condition and upon loss of protective

ground (earth) connection, all accessible conducting

parts - including controls that might appear to be

insulated - can render an electric shock.

CAUTION: Use correct Fuse

To avoid a fire hazard, use the correct fuse

type, voltage and current rating as specified for

the equipment. Refer fuse replacement to

qualified service personnel.

Grounding the equipment

The unit is grounded through the mains lead: to

avoid electric shock, plug the power lead into a

properly-wired receptacle before connecting to the

input or output terminals. A protective ground

connection by the way of the grounding conductor in

the power lead is essential for safe operation.

3.0: Service & Repair

Replacing the fuse

At the rear right of the Digital Readout remove

the fuse cover of the IEC320 connector and

replace the fuse with the same type and value.

This equipment contains no user serviceable parts

other than the fuse.

This equipment must be returned to your Omega

dealer for all other service and repair.

Dismantling the unit will invalidate the warranty.

4.0: Measurement Configurations

Individual probe - connection of one Linear

Encoder or Digital Probe.

Probe pair - connection of 2 probes

configured as A+B or A-B.

Probes may be plugged directly into the rear panel

recessed receptacle.

Multiple probes - up to 10 individual probes

or probe pairs (A+B or A-B)

each allocated to a program.

Scan - connection of up to 30

probes (Linear Encoders

and/or Digital Probes) and

allocated to a single

program.

Refer to Digital Benchtop Meter User Manual to

configure the options.

To connect more than 2 probes to the Digital Readout,

use the Orbit Network Connection System.

When more than 10 probes are connected to the Digital

Readout a supplementary power supply interface

module will be required (Omega Part No. LDN-PS).
