1. Connect Jumpers
WARNING: Never look directly into the end of a ber that may be
carrying laser light. Laser light can be invisible and can damage your
eyes. Viewing it directly does not cause pain. The iris of the eye will
not close involuntarily as when viewing a bright light. Consequently,
serious damage to the retina of the eye is possible. Should accidental
eye exposure to laser light be suspected, arrange for an eye
examination immediately.
