AC power cord use
• Do not use a power cord other than the supplied AC power cord. Do not modify the cord.
• Do not touch the plug of the AC power cord with wet hands.
• Protect the AC power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, expansion
receptacles and the point where the cord exits from the system.
• Do not place heavy items on the cord.
• Do not place the AC power cord near heating equipment and do not expose the cord to heat.
• Do not allow dust or foreign matter to build up around the AC IN connector. Before connecting
or plugging in the AC power cord, check that there is no dust or foreign matter in or on the
power plug or connecting end of the cord, the electrical outlet or the AC IN connector on the
system rear. If the plug or connector becomes dirty, wipe off with a dry cloth before
connecting.
• Unplug the AC power cord from the electrical outlet before cleaning or moving the system, or
when you do not intend to use the system for an extended period of time.
• When disconnecting, grasp the power cord by the plug and pull straight out of the electrical
outlet. Never pull by the cord and do not pull out at an angle.
• Do not connect the AC power cord to a voltage transformer or inverter. Connecting the AC
power cord to a voltage transformer for overseas travel or an inverter for use in an automobile
may cause heat to build up in the system and may cause burns or a malfunction.
Never disassemble or modify the system or accessories
Use the debugging station and accessories according to the instructions in the product
documentation. No authorization for the analysis or modifi cation of the system, or the analysis
and use of its circuit confi gurations, is provided. Unauthorized modifi cation of the system will
void your warranty. There are no user serviceable components inside the debugging station.
Additionally, there is a risk of exposure to laser radiation as well as to electrical shock.
Network - wired connection
Use only an Ethernet cable compatible with 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX or 1000BASE-T
networks. Do not use a cord for a standard residential telephone line or cables of types other
than those mentioned here. Using the wrong type of cord or cable can cause more electrical
current than necessary to fl ow through the LAN connector, which may lead to heat build-up, fi re
or malfunction.
Moisture condensation
If the system or disc is brought directly from a cold location to a warm one, moisture may
condense on the lens inside the system or on the disc. Should this occur, the system may not
operate properly. In this case, remove the disc and turn off and unplug the system. Do not put
the disc back in until the moisture evaporates (this may take several hours).
