Safety Guidelines

General
Guideline

CAUTION

Do not place any heavy object on the instruments.

Avoid severe impacts or rough handling that leads to
damaging the instruments.

Do not discharge static electricity to the instruments.

Use only mating connectors, not bare wires, for the
terminals.

Do not disassemble the instruments unless you are
qualified.

Power Supply

WARNING

Input voltage: DC 5V

The power supply voltage should not fluctuate more
than 10%.

Operation
Environment

Location: Indoor, no direct sunlight, dust free, almost
non-conductive pollution (Note below)

Relative Humidity: < 80%

Altitude: < 2000m

Temperature: 0°C to 50°C

(Pollution Degree) EN 61010-1:2001 specifies the pollution degrees
and their requirements as follows. GDS-2000 and the Training Kit
fall under degree 2.Pollution refers to “addition of foreign matter,
solid, liquid, or gaseous (ionized gases), that may produce a
reduction of dielectric strength or surface resistivity”.

Pollution degree 1: No pollution or only dry, non-conductive
pollution occurs. The pollution has no influence.

Pollution degree 2: Normally only non-conductive pollution
occurs. Occasionally, however, a temporary conductivity caused
by condensation must be expected.

Pollution degree 3: Conductive pollution occurs, or dry, non-
conductive pollution occurs which becomes conductive due to
condensation which is expected. In such conditions, equipment
is normally protected against exposure to direct sunlight,
precipitation, and full wind pressure, but neither temperature
nor humidity is controlled.
