packing material like contact paper on the
ventilation surface, otherwise, it could cause
poor heat dissipation while running, as well as
fire, failure and accidental operation.
◆Avoid conducting wiring and plugging in/out
cable socket with electricity, otherwise, electric
shock, circuit damage could easily happen.
◆Installation and wiring should be firm and
reliable. Poor contact could cause malfunction.
◆With regard to the application situations with
strong interference, shielded cable should be
used for the input and output of HF signal, to
improve the anti-interference performance of the
system.
Note in Wiring
◆Installation and wiring shouldn't be conducted
until external electric power is cut off, otherwise,
electric shock or device damage could happen.
◆The product is grounded by the earth lead of
the power cable. To avoid electric shock, the
earth lead is necessary to be connected with the
ground. Before making connection with the
output end or input end of the product, please
ensure it is correctly grounding.
◆Upon finish wiring, remove the sundries.
Please cover up the terminal plate for avoiding
electric shock.
Note for Operation and Maintenance
◆Please DO NOT touch the terminal when with
electricity, otherwise, electric shock could
happen.
◆Don't clean up and screw the terminal tight
before power is off. Such operation could cause
electric shock when with electricity.
◆Please turn off the power before connecting or
disconnecting the communication signal cable,
peripheral modules or control units, otherwise,
device could be damaged and accidental
operation could happen.
◆Please DO NOT disassemble the device, so
as to avoid internal electric components damage.
◆It is necessary to read through the Manual and
fully ensure the safety, before altering the
program, trial running, starting and stopping
operation.
◆Button battery shouldn't be replaced before
the power is off. If it has to be replaced when the

device is running, it should be conducted by
professional electric technician wearing insulated
gloves.
Note for declaration of worthless.
When declaring of worthless, please note
◆Explosion of electrolytic capacitor on the
circuit board could happen when burning it.
◆Please classify and dispose it. Don't dispose it
into household garbage.
◆Please deal it as industrial waste, or in
accordance with local environmental protection
regulation.
