Important Notes for Using the PCI-BASE50/300
•The PCI-BASE50/300 is only suitable for extra-low voltages - please observe the relevant regulations!
•The PCI-BASE50/300 must only be used in closed PC housings (for reasons relating to EMC).
•All accessible pins are electrostatic sensitive devices. Provide for a conductive work place connected to ground.
•For CE reasons use well shielded cables, connect shield at one end only. Close open inputs, if possible. At the
37pole plug the signals are connected, use shielded cables only. For best possible interference suppression connect
shield at one end only. Close open inputs if necessary. ESD voltages at open lines may cause malfunction.
•The PCI-BASE50/300 ground is electrically connected to the chassis of the PC, which is usually also connected to
ground. Be sure to avoid ground loops since they will cause measuring errors!
•For cleaning use water and mild detergent only. The modules are designed to be maintenance-free.
•The device must not be used for safety-relevant tasks. With the use of the product the customer becomes manufac-
turer by law and is therefore fully responsible for the proper installation and use of the product. In the case of im-
proper use and/or unauthorized interference our warranty ceases and any warranty claim is excluded.
•Improper installation of the modules on the PCI-BASE50/300 may damage the modules and/or the PCI-
BASE50/300. When removing the modules use only blunt tools!
•When connecting internal ribbon cables to the PCI-BASE50/300, please observe that the modules are well venti-
lated to prevent excess heating. Also observe the temperature ranges of the PC.
