1.4. Disclaimer and Safety
The DP Series PCI Digitizer cards have been designed to operate in a standard PCI slot found inside most personal
computers. The model DC Series CompactPCI/PXI Digitizers have been designed to operate inside a
CompactPCI/PXI crate. The crate provides the modules with all needed power. Agilent Technologies does not
recommend operation of the DC Series modules outside of a CompactPCI/PXI crate.
CAUTION: Do not exceed the maximum input voltage rating! The maximum input voltage for 50
Ω
input
impedance is
±
5 V. The maximum input for 1 M
Ω
input impedance is
±
100 V (dc + ac) except
for the DC2x1A/AR models where it is
±
300 V (dc + ac) .
1.5. Warning Regarding Medical Use
The Digitizer cards are not designed with components and testing procedures that would ensure a level of reliability
suitable for use in treatment and diagnosis of humans. Applications of these cards involving medical or clinical
treatment can create a potential for accidental injury caused by product failure, or by errors on the part of the user.
These cards are not intended to be a substitute for any form of established process or equipment used to monitor or
safeguard human health and safety in medical treatment.
WARNING: The modules discussed in this manual have not been designed for making direct measurements
on the human body. Users who connect an Acqiris module to a human body do so at their own
risk.
