Safety

Before unpacking and installing the RVP system, the user should carefully read the safety instructions below and ensure that they are followed
at all times by all operators.

The RVP vision probe system should only be used with the REVO-2 head.
Operators must be trained in the use and application of the REVO-2 system and accompanying products, in the context of the machine it is

fitted to, before being allowed to operate that machine.
Permanent magnets are used in some components of the REVO-2 system and associated products. It is important to keep them away from

items which may be affected by magnetic fields, e.g. data storage systems, pacemakers and watches.

VM10 and VM11 LED emissions

The VM10 and VM11 vision modules incorporate high power LED lights and should not be used in the event of serious damage to any part of
the VM10 and VM11 modules. In such cases immediately disconnect the power source, remove and do not attempt to reuse the parts. Contact
your supplier for advice.

CAUTION: This equipment uses LED illumination that may flash at a variable rate. Avoid exposure or seek advice from your
medical practitioner if you are susceptible to photosensitivity or related health effects.
