WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS

The features, functionality and capability which are described in this

manual are not necessarily present in all versions or configurations of the

VisionMaster FT system.

WARNING: Lethal Voltage Hazard

WHEN ACCESS COVERS ARE REMOVED, LETHAL VOLTAGES MAY BE

EXPOSED. SOME CAPACITORS USED IN THE EQUIPMENT TAKE

SEVERAL MINUTES TO DISCHARGE THEIR STORED VOLTAGES AFTER

SWITCH OFF; THIS IS A LETHAL VOLTAGE HAZARD. ALWAYS SET THE

SUPPLY SWITCH-FUSE TO OFF AND REMOVE THE FUSES, BEFORE

REMOVING THE ACCESS COVERS OF THE EQUIPMENT.

WARNING: Health Hazard

WHEN CLEANING THE INSIDE OF THE EQUIPMENT, TAKE CARE NOT

TO INHALE DUST. THE DUST IS A TEMPORARY HEALTH HAZARD,

DEPENDING ON INDIVIDUAL ALLERGIES.

WARNING: Radiation Hazard

KEEP OUTSIDE THE HAZARD ZONE AROUND AN ANTENNA OR OPEN

WAVEGUIDE RADIATING POWER. REFER TO THE TABLE BELOW FOR

HAZARD ZONES. WHEN IT IS NECESSARY TO WORK ON THE SCANNER

UNIT, MAKE SURE THAT RADAR IS SWITCHED OFF, AND THAT BOTH

THE MAINS ISOLATOR AND THE SCANNER CONTROL UNIT ARE

TURNED TO THE OFF POSITION.

NEVER LOOK DIRECTLY INTO AN OPEN WAVEGUIDE.

RADAR AND OTHER FORMS OF RF RADIATION CAN CAUSE CARDIAC

PACEMAKERS TO MALFUNCTION. IF YOU USE A CARDIAC

PACEMAKER AND SUSPECT A MALFUNCTION, LEAVE THE VICINITY OF

THE RADAR SYSTEM IMMEDIATELY AND SEEK MEDICAL ADVICE.

Most countries accept that there is no significant radiation hazard at RF

power density levels of up to 100W/m2(10mW/cm2).

CAUTION: Electrostatic Sensitive Devices (ESSDs)

This equipment contains ESSDs. Take care not to damage these devices

by discharge of electrostatic voltages.

CAUTION: Anti-Virus Protection

Before connecting an external device such as a USB memory

stick, or external media such as a CD or DVD to the VisionMaster

PC it is important that the external device/media should first be

scanned with a recognised virus and malware scanning program

that includes up-to-date virus definitions. Also, the external

device/media should be reserved for use with VisionMaster PCs,

with use on other computers kept to an absolute minimum.

Care should be taken to ensure that any PCs (e.g. laptops) that

have been previously connected to other networks are subject to

the same checks as external media prior to being connected to the

network on which VisionMaster PCs are connected.
