2.1 Safety information
Please read this entire manual before unpacking, setting up or operating this equipment.
Pay attention to all danger, warning and caution statements. Failure to do so could result
in serious injury to the operator or damage to the equipment.
Make sure that the protection provided by this equipment is not impaired, do not use or
install this equipment in any manner other than that specified in this manual.
DANGER
The manufacturer products designed for outdoor use are provided with a high level
of ingress protection against liquids and dust. If these products are connected to a
mains electricity socket by means of a cable and plug rather than by fixed wiring,
the level of ingress protection of the plug and socket connection against liquids
and dust is considerably lower. It is the responsibility of the operator to protect the
plug and socket connection in such a manner that the connection has an adequate
level of ingress protection against liquids and dust and complies with the local
safety regulations.
When the instrument is used outdoors, it should be connected only to a suitable
socket with at least IP44 rating (protection against water sprayed from all
directions).
