CHAPTER 1
Safety information
Classification of the safety information
Knowledge of the User Manual
The user manuals relating to the units form part of this service man-
ual. Familiarity with the user manuals, in particular the procedures for
setting up, commissioning and handling described in the manuals, is
a prerequisite for the performance of servicing work.
Protection from the risk of electric shock
WARNING! The WARNING! safety indication refers to a risk of personal injury.
CAUTION! The CAUTION! safety indication refers to a risk of damage to prop-
erty.
ATTENTION! The ATTENTION! safety indication refers to a risk which can cause
equipment to become unserviceable.
IMPORTANT! The IMPORTANT! designation indicates application information
and other particularly important information.
WARNING! The supply voltage must match the voltage specified on the rating
plate. Connect the unit / the equipment cart to a properly installed
grounded outlet. Only use the ERBE power cord or an equivalent
power cord for this purpose. The power cord must bear the
national test symbol.
For safety reasons, multiple outlets and extension cords should
not be used. If their use is unavoidable, they also must be provided
with proper grounding.
WARNING! Unplug the power cord from the outlet before exchanging parts of
the unit or cleaning it.
WARNING! Do not plug a wet power cord into the unit or into an outlet.
WARNING! Do not touch any unprotected wires or conductive surfaces while
the unit is opened and under voltage.

Electrostatically sensitive components
Liability and warranty
WARNING! Blown line fuses may only be replaced by a competent technician.
Only replacement fuses of the rating specified on the unit's name
plate may be used. Before resuming operation the unit must be
subjected to a performance test by a competent technician.
CAUTION! This unit contains electrostatically sensitive components. Work at
an anti-static workplace while repairing the unit. Wear a grounding
armband while working with electrostatically sensitive compo-
nents. Hold the circuit boards by their non-conducting corners.
Use an anti-static container for transporting electrostatically sensi-
tive components and the circuit boards.
ATTENTION! Adjustments, tests, modifications, maintenance and repair work
may only be performed by ERBE or persons trained by ERBE. If
the work is not performed by trained persons, ERBE accepts no
liability and warranty rights become void.
It is recommended that the safety check also be performed by
ERBE or persons trained by ERBE.
ATTENTION! Only use original ERBE spare parts. The manufacturer accepts no
liability and the warranty rights becomes void if original spare parts
are not used.

display
V 2.1.x A bar diagram is shown on the display on activation of the output
indicator.
The bar diagram provides a dynamic display of the delivered out-
put during activation. At the end of activation, Pmax shows the
maximum delivered output, and Pavg the mean value of the deliv-
ered output over the activation period.
The green line in the bar diagram represents the power limitation
selected.
Display
UpMax
V 2.1.x Display of maximum HF voltage [Vp] on activation of the unit. In
the user manual for the instrument or on the instrument itself the
maximum electrical capacity is given in [Vp]. If the HF voltage
exceeds the capacity of the instrument, the instrument may be
damaged. Select a reduced effect to avoid this.
AUTO

1. Test programs not explained here are not relevant for the service technicians.
2. "safe config." saves the receptacle configuration of the unit detected by the system. The receptacle configuration must be saved by the
service technician after each software update and each time the unit is upgraded or converted. For this purpose compare the receptacle
configuration indicated on the "Version list" with the physical configuration on the unit. If they agree, save the receptacle configuration with
"safe config."
