Chapter 1: Introduction
Table 1-2 Safety Symbol Descriptions (cont'd.)
Symbol Description
Alternating current (AC)
Protective Earth Ground Terminal, Primarily used for protective earth
terminals.
Terminal connected to conductive parts of a device for the purpose of safety
and is intended to be connected to an external system for protective
grounding
Functional Ground Terminal Primarily used for functional earth terminals
which are generally associated with test and measurement circuits. These
terminals are not for safety earthing purposes but provide an earth reference
point.
NOTE: To emphasize points or remind readers of something, or to indicate minor
problems in the outcome of what they are doing.
CAUTION
Failure to follow the instructions can result in damaged equipment or loss of
data or potential problems.
DANGER

Safety messages
DANGER
Turn off the main electrical disconnect switch prior to servicing any of the system’s
Expansion Boxes. Failure to do so might lead to serious injury or death.
Always use extreme caution when measuring voltage or performing procedures that require a
module to be powered on.
IMPORTANT: Ensure all your settings are properly configured. Improper configuration of your settings
may generate false alerts or fail to generate an alert.
Electrostatic discharge prevention when manipulating a printed circuit board
(PCB)
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. ESD damage occurs
when electronic components are improperly handled and can result in complete or intermittent failures.
