While using this product, you may need to access other parts of a larger system. Read the safety sections of the other
component manuals for warnings and cautions related to operating the system.
When incorporating this equipment into a system, the safety of that system is the responsibility of the assembler of the system.
To avoid fire or personal injury
Use proper power cord. Use only the power cord specified for this product and certified for the country of use. Do not use the
provided power cord for other products.
Ground the product. This product is grounded through the grounding conductor of the power cord. To avoid electric shock, the
grounding conductor must be connected to earth ground. Before making connections to the input or output terminals of the
product, ensure that the product is properly grounded. Do not disable the power cord grounding connection.
Power disconnect. The power cord disconnects the product from the power source. See instructions for the location. Do not
position the equipment so that it is difficult to operate the power cord; it must remain accessible to the user at all times to allow for
quick disconnection if needed.
Observe all terminal ratings. To avoid fire or shock hazard, observe all rating and markings on the product. Consult the product
manual for further ratings information before making connections to the product.
Do not apply a potential to any terminal, including the common terminal, that exceeds the maximum rating of that terminal.
Do not float the common terminal above the rated voltage for that terminal.
The measurement terminals on this product are not rated for connection to mains or Category II, III, or IV circuits.
Do not operate without covers. Do not operate this product with covers or panels removed, or with the case open. Hazardous
voltage exposure is possible.
Avoid exposed circuitry. Do not touch exposed connections and components when power is present.
Do not operate with suspected failures. If you suspect that there is damage to this product, have it inspected by qualified
service personnel.

Before use, inspect voltage probes, test leads, and accessories for mechanical damage and replace when damaged. Do not use
probes or test leads if they are damaged, if there is exposed metal, or if a wear indicator shows.
Examine the exterior of the product before you use it. Look for cracks or missing pieces.
Use only specified replacement parts.
Do not operate in wet/damp conditions. Be aware that condensation may occur if a unit is moved from a cold to a warm
environment.
Do not operate in an explosive atmosphere.
Keep product surfaces clean and dry. Remove the input signals before you clean the product.
Provide proper ventilation. Refer to the installation instructions in the manual for details on installing the product so it has
proper ventilation.
Slots and openings are provided for ventilation and should never be covered or otherwise obstructed. Do not push objects into
any of the openings.

Compliance Information
This section lists the EMC (electromagnetic compliance), safety, and environmental standards with which the instrument
complies. This product is intended for use by professionals and trained personnel only; it is not designed for use in households or
by children.

EMC compliance
EU EMC Directive
Meets intent of Directive 2014/30/EU for Electromagnetic Compatibility. Compliance was demonstrated to the following
specifications as listed in the Official Journal of the European Communities:

This product is intended for use in nonresidential areas only. Use in residential areas may cause electromagnetic interference.
2
Emissions which exceed the levels required by this standard may occur when this equipment is connected to a test object.
3
Equipment may not meet the immunity requirements of applicable listed standards when test leads and/or test probes are connected due to coupling of electromagnetic
interference onto those leads/probes. To minimize the influence of electromagnetic interference, minimize the loop area between the unshielded portions of signal and
associated return leads, and keep leads as far away as possible from electromagnetic disturbance sources. Twisting unshielded test leads together is an effective way to
reduce loop area. For probes, keep the ground return lead as short as possible and close to the probe body. Some probes have accessory probe tip adapters to
accomplish this most effectively. In all cases, observe all safety instructions for the probes or leads used.
4
For compliance with the EMC standards listed here, high quality shielded interface cables that incorporate low impedance connection between the cable shield and the
connector shell should be used.
5
Up to 3.0 ps of additional jitter is allowed when the instrument is subjected to fields and signals as defined in the IEC 61000-4-3 tests.
6
Up to 3.0 ps of additional jitter is allowed when the instrument is subjected to fields and signals as defined in the IEC 61000-4-6 tests.
