GENERAL INFORMATION - SAFETY
CAUTION
• Only qualifi ed specialist staff may carry out service tasks. Service work is necessary, if the unit has been damaged,
e.g. if the mains plug or mains cable have been damaged, if liquid or items are present inside the device, if it has
been exposed to water or moisture, if it does not work properly or if it has fallen down.
• Never remove the casing covers or modify the product in any way. This can cause an electric shock or burn you.
• Immediately pull the plug, if you notice that your product emits smoke, smells burnt or emits unusual noises and
ask your specialist dealer for advice.
• Do not allow the product to come into contact with liquids. Liquid in the casing can cause a fi re, electric shock or
damage the device. Immediately pull the mains plug out, if an item or liquid gets into the casing. Notice that the
apparatus shall not be exposed to splashing or dripping liquids and no objects fi lled with liquids, such as vases,
shall be placed on the apparatus.
• Keep small items away from the product. These can fall into the casing and cause a fire, an electric shock or
damage the device. Don‘t try to reach into the housing or plugs with wires or the like.
• Never touch not-isolated parts of the plug, if the device is connected to the power adapter!
• Where the mains plug or an appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device, the disconnect device shall
remain readily operable.
• Avoid any impact and do not allow the product to fall!

GENERAL INFORMATION - INSTALLATION
Operation and Storage Requirements
The ambient temperature for operating the device is between +5 and +50 degrees Celsius. Do not install the device
in the proximity of heat sources, such as heating pipes, heaters, furnaces or other devices, which radiate heat.
Mount the device in such a way that it is protected against moisture. Trouble free operation is ensured up to 75% air
humidity.To prevent fi re or electric shock, never allow liquids to enter the unit. The product must be stored in dry and
well-ventilated rooms, without extreme temperature fl uctuations. Heat sources and aggressive active substances may
not be stored in the proximity of the device. The required storage temperature is 0°C - +60°C at an air humidity of
5 - 85% RH. The device must be stored in the complete packaging, as delivered.
Installation
Have this product installed by qualifi ed staff only. Use the mounting systems which are specifi ed or recommended
by ad notam. Install the product in a way that it is fi xed properly and take care that children are not exposed to dan-
ger. Please take extra care during installation, avoid impacts. Before cabling your device, check that the power is off.
To avoid any possibility of electric shock, always connect your equipment to properly earthed outlets. Use of power
cords or adapters other than those provided may cause fi re or malfunction. Place this product as close to the power
socket as possible. Leave enough space to insert and remove the power plug on demand. Even if you switch off the
product with your remote control, power is not cut off unless the power cord is unplugged.
Installation Environment
Avoid direct light or sun exposure, direct proximity to heat sources, outdoor installation. The product is specifi cally
designed for indoor use only. There is the danger of fi re and of electric shocks and damage to the device, if it is
operated outdoors. Do not place any heat sources such as radiators and heat registers, etc. near the device.

DSTB-T/S2
Installation of Power Adapters
The device may only be operated with the provided power adapter. The rated voltage is indicated on the product
label. The device is factory-set to the optimal operating voltage (see Technical Specifi cation). Use only power cords
and plugs that are suitable for your local electrical outlets. Install the power cords in such a way that it does not
obstruct anyone. Ensure furthermore that the cable is not clamped and that it cannot be pulled out accidentally from
the power adapter. Do not install the power cords in the proximity of heating elements and never place heavy items
on the cable or power adapter. Do not modify or arbitrary repair the power cords.
CAUTION
Do not use any power cords or adapters other than those provided with this product! Use of power cords or
adapters other than those provided with this product may cause fi re, electric shock or malfunction. If several kinds
of power cords are provided with this product, use the one that fi ts your power socket. Do not let the adapter hang
down while using. Do not cover or wrap the adapter. Leave space around the adapter to prevent overheating. The
individual components can be destroyed, if the polarity is reversed or an incorrect connection is used.
A goodwill replacement is not possible in such cases, since each device is submitted to meticulous quality
inspections prior to shipping. The connecting plugs must be attached in such a way that the connector is held fi rmly.
Have trained technical personnel install the electrical facilities necessary for mounting. The power adapter has to be
installed in ventilated areas due to the heat emission! Connect the power cord to a grounding outlet! Never cut or
damage the power cord!
Please disconnect the device from the power adapter in the following cases:
• The device is out of use for a lengthy period.
• The device malfunctions or displays other unusual features, necessitating maintenance work.
• During a thunderstorm.
Please plan the positioning of the power adapter and the source cables before proceeding with the structural
measures and positioning of the device. Observe the protection zones when placing the power adapter! For
in-wall applications please bear in mind that the power adapter has to be placed beyond the inset due to heat
emission!

7
NOTE
The power adapter should be adequately secured to prevent it from becoming unstable and/or falling. Make sure the
power source circuits are properly grounded. Use the supplied power cord in order to connect it to the power source. If your
installation requires a different power cord, be sure to use an offi cially approved power cord displaying the mark of the
safety agency that defi nes the regulations for power cords in your country. Please consider that the AC outlet for the power
adapter is placed within reach and should be easily accessible in case it needs to be powered off.
Do install the product in a dry environment where the operating ambient temperature might not exceed 40°C / 104°F.
Also don´t position the power adapter on top or on the back of the device in order to prevent thermal overload. Ensure
that your installation complies with your national safety rules. Any servicing, adjustment, maintenance or repair must
be performed only by service-trained personnel.
Ensure that the power adapter is installed in a serviceable location, to access it easily in case of a defect. If you choose
to place the power adapter in a separate space, take care that the ventilation is present, because the power adapters
need convection cooling for stable working conditions.
When placing the power adapter in a fully enclosed space, make sure the air fl ow around the sides and top of the power
adapter is not restricted. According to a common rule of thumb the minimum dimensions for a niche for the power
adapter may be defi ned as follows: please calculate the length of the power adapter plus an additional gap of at least
100mm all around for DC 12V power adapters.

INSTALLATION IN WET ROOMS
For installations in wet rooms specifi c installation guidelines apply, which are to be seen in the context of placing the
power adapter outside of certain protection zones. These regulations differ by region. Please contact a specialist for
this. In Germany electrical installations are to be performed by a skilled technician, while observing the regulations of
the standard DIN VDE 0100 T.701.
According to this standard, ad notam monitor systems with DC 12V (Limited Power Source Class II, SELV) can be
installed at each position (incl. Zones “0” and “1”) in harsh environments, also in showers and above a bath tub as
long as the low voltage product is shielded from a sealed glass surface and the (external) power adapter is installed
beyond these protection zones.
NOTE
The safety current source has to be arranged outside the zones 0 - 2 and needs to be protected against direct
impact. The assessment of the protection zones on site of the installation must be performed in accordance with the
valid national guidelines by a skilled local electrician. ad notam will not be held liable for improper installation!
