Laser Safety Announcements
!
!
!
!
AD1000 is a laser instrument. Users should avoid looking
directly into the optic output. And the use of microscope or
!
magnifier should also be avoided, for the use of such devices
can focus a highly intense beam onto the retina, which may
result in permanent eye damage.
Make sure that the optical fiber or cable is not in use and there
is no laser beam in the fiber before testing with OTDR module
or it may result in imprecise test trace, even permanent
damage to AD1000.
!
Laser Radiation: To avoid serious eye injury, never look
directly into the optical outputs of fiber optic network
!
equipment, test equipment, patch cords, or test jumpers.
!
!Always avoid looking directly into the optical output port,
when AD1000 is working.
!Always replace protective dust cap on the detector port
when AD1000 is not being used.
!Always avoid looking directly at unconnected end of optic
fiber in testing and make the unconnected end pointing at
a non-reflective object if available.

Electric Safety Announcements
!
!
If need to assure instrument thorough outage, please pull up power line and take the
battery out
!
!
!
!
"AC/DC adaptor should be used only indoors.
!
"The ambient air of AD1000 place should be free flow.
!
"Any using of electric tools near inflammable gas or smog will be a big safety
threat.
"In order to avoid electric shock, please don’t use instrument if there is
damage on any outside surface part(top cover, panel, etc)
"Only qualified professional staff can do electrified adjustment, maintenance
and repair to the operating instrument.
"Even AD1000 power is cut off; the capacity in AD1000 might be
electrified in some time after that.
!
!
!
!
Battery: Battery of AD1000 is rechargeable lithium battery. If
unused for a long time, battery should be recharged before
use. If AD1000 is not in use for more than two months, it
should be recharged to maintain adequate battery volume. Do
not recharge batteries for more than 8 hours. Do not take
batteries out without technical staff’s help. Do not expose
batteries to fire or intense heat. Do not open or mutilate
batteries. Avoid touching the electrolyte in the batteries, which
is corrosive and may cause injuries to eyes, skin or damage to
clothes.
