Connecting the Cables
NOTICE
Do not apply a voltage exceeding the specications between channels.
Modules whose channels are isolated from one another incorporate semiconductor
relays. Subjecting these modules to a voltage exceeding the voltage specied in
the instrument’s specications could cause a short circuit fault of the semiconductor
relays.
IMPORTANT
• Measurement may be aected by the EMC environment, for example external noise, when
connecting cables of greater than 3 m in length. Keep cables away from power lines and
ground lines.
• Measured values may exhibit variability when cables are connected in parallel with other
devices. Be sure to verify proper operation when connecting cables in parallel.
When connecting cords to the analog input terminals
DANGER
Do not leave input cords connected in environments where there is the
possibility of a surge exceeding the dielectric strength.
Doing so may damage the instrument, resulting in serious bodily injury.
WARNING
Before connecting measurement cables to the analog input terminals,
follow the procedure below:
1. Turn o the instrument and all equipment to be connected.
2. Eliminate static electricity from the body.
Failure to do so could cause electric shock or damage to the instrument.
When using wires with crimp terminals, use insulated terminals designed for use with M3 screws in
the following sizes:
6 mm or less 6 mm or less
