Notices
Warnings
A warning indicates a possible hazard to personnel, which may cause injury or
death. Observe the following general warnings when using or working on this
equipment:
• Any instructions in this manual that require opening the equipment cover or enclosure
are for use by qualified service personnel only.
• Do not operate the equipment in wet or damp conditions. If the unit is in a wet or
damp environment, a rain cover must be used to protect it for personal safety reasons.
• Disconnect power before cleaning the equipment. Do not use liquid or aerosol
cleaners; use only a damp cloth.
• Dangerous voltages may exist at several points in this equipment. To avoid injury, do
not touch exposed connections and components while power is on.
• Prior to servicing, remove jewelry such as rings, watches, and other metallic objects.
• To avoid explosion, do not operate this equipment in an explosive atmosphere.
• Have qualified service personnel perform safety checks after any service.
Cautions
A caution indicates a possible hazard to equipment that could result in equipment
damage. Observe the following cautions when operating or working on this
equipment:
• Products that have no on/off switch, and use an external power supply must be
installed in proximity to a main power outlet that is easily accessible.
• Do not operate with suspected equipment failure. If you suspect product damage or
equipment failure, have the equipment inspected by qualified service personnel.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than that
contained in the operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so. Refer all
servicing to qualified service personnel.
• Follow static precautions at all times when handling this equipment. Servicing should
be done in a static-free environment.
• Provide proper ventilation. To prevent product overheating, provide equipment
ventilation in accordance with the installation instructions. Do not block the hot airflow
coming from air outlet(s).

v
Precautions
To ensure continual high performance from the camera take the following precautions into
consideration:
• Avoid damp places. If the environment is wet or damp a rain cover must be used to
protect the camera.
• Do not subject the camera to severe shocks or vibration.
• Do not expose the camera to extremes of temperature.
• Do not leave the camera in direct sunlight or close to heating appliances for extended
periods.
• Do not allow sunlight to shine into the viewfinder.
• Do not allow laser beams to shine into the lens as this could damage the imagers.
• Avoid extreme highlights as these can cause various kinds of optical reflections.
• Be careful when connecting and disconnecting fiber cables.
• Do not connect Grass Valley camera systems with other manufacturer’s camera system
parts.
• Make connections swiftly and firmly to avoid false error messages.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Protection
Electrostatic discharge occurs when electronic components are improperly
handled and can result in intermittent failure or complete damage adversely
affecting an electrical circuit. When you remove and replace any card from a frame
always follow ESD-prevention procedures:
• Ensure that the frame is electrically connected to earth ground through the power cord
or any other means if available.
Notices
• Wear an ESD wrist strap ensuring that it makes good skin contact. Connect the
grounding clip to an unpainted surface of the chassis frame to safely ground unwanted
ESD voltages. If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching the unpainted
metal part of the chassis.
• For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap, which should
be between 1 and 10 megohms.
• When temporarily storing a card make sure it is placed in an ESD bag.
• Cards in an earth grounded metal frame or casing do not require any special ESD
protection.

Laser Safety - Fiber Output SFP and QSFP Modules Warning
LASER SAFETY
The average optical output power does not exceed 0 dBm (1mW) under normal operating
conditions. Unused optical outputs should be covered to prevent direct exposure to the
laser beam.
Even though the power of these lasers is low, the beam should be treated with caution
and common sense because it is intense and concentrated. Laser radiation can cause
irreversible and permanent damage of eyesight. Please read the following guidelines
carefully:
• Make sure that a fiber is connected to the board's fiber outputs before power is
applied. If a fiber cable (e.g. patchcord) is already connected to an output, make sure
that the cable's other end is connected, too, before powering up the board.
•Do not look in the end of a fiber to see if light is coming out. The laser wavelengths
being used are totally invisible to the human eye and can cause permanent damage.
Always use optical instrumentation, such as an optical power meter, to verify light
output.

EMC performance of cables and connectors
Grass Valley products are designed to meet or exceed the requirements of the appropriate
European EMC standards. In order to achieve this performance in real installations it is
essential to use cables and connectors with good EMC characteristics.
All signal connections (including remote control connections) shall be made with screened
cables terminated in connectors having a metal shell. The cable screen shall have a large-
area contact with the metal shell.
SIGNAL/DATA PORTS
For unconnected signal/data ports on the unit, fit shielding covers. For example, fit EMI
blanking covers to SFP(+) type ports and fit 75 Ώ RF terminators to BNC type ports.
COAXIAL CABLES
Coaxial cables connections (particularly serial digital video connections) shall be made with
high-quality double-screened coaxial cables such as Belden 8281 or BBC type PSF1/2M and
Belden 1694A (for 3Gbps).
D-TYPE CONNECTORS
D-type connectors shall have metal shells making good RF contact with the cable screen.
Connectors having “dimples” which improve the contact between the plug and socket
shells, are recommended.
