1.1. Warnings

Power cables can carry a high voltage, even when the motor is not in motion. Disconnect

the Solo Whistle from all voltage sources before it is opened for servicing.

The Solo Whistle servo drive contains grounding conduits for electric current protection.

Any disruption to these conduits may cause the instrument to become hot (live) and
dangerous.

After shutting off the power and removing the power source from your equipment, wait at

least 1 minute before touching or disconnecting parts of the equipment that are normally
loaded with electrical charges (such as capacitors or contacts). Measuring the electrical
contact points with a meter, before touching the equipment, is recommended.

1.2. Cautions

The Solo Whistle servo drive contains hot surfaces and electrically-charged components

during operation.

The maximum DC power supply connected to the instrument must comply with the

parameters outlined in this guide.

When connecting the Solo Whistle to an approved 11 to 95 VDC auxiliary power supply,

connect it through a line that is separated from hazardous live voltages using reinforced or
double insulation in accordance with approved safety standards.

Before switching on the Solo Whistle, verify that all safety precautions have been observed

and that the installation procedures in this manual have been followed.

Do not clean any of the Solo Whistle drive's soldering with solvent cleaning fluids of pH

greater than 7 (8 to 14). The solvent corrodes the plastic cover causing cracks and eventual
damage to the drive's PCBs.

Elmo recommends using the cleaning fluid Vigon-EFM which is pH Neutral (7).
