1. Setting Up the Instrument
To properly set up the Ectane® 3:
1. Remove the instrument from its transportation case.
2. Position the instrument on a level and stable surface. You can position it horizontally or
vertically.
Never use the instrument when it is upside down (batteries on top).
This position prevents the batteries from properly dissipating heat
and can lead the Ectane 3 to enter its power safe mode. For details
about the power safe mode, see Environmental Conditions on page
53.
IMPORTANT Regardless of how you position the instrument, you must
always have a
minimum clearance of 10 cm (4 in.)
on all sides of the instrument. Always
position the instrument away from heat sources. This ensures proper heat
dissipation while the instrument is in use.
When in use, and depending on the loaded setup, the instrument can
generate a non-negligible amount of heat. It should not cause any
kind of harm but can prove uncomfortable to the touch. Therefore,
when moving the instrument, always use the carrying handle.
