1. Important Notes
Please make absolutely sure you take account of the following notes, which are intended to
ensure your personal safety when handling this monitor as well as ensuring a long, fault-free
service life. As most of the information in this manual is color-coded it is best to print it in
color. You should therefore use the PDF included on the CD or request it by email from
maxymos@kistler.com. You can also pass on information, ideas, requirements and any
criticisms to us using maxymos@kistler.com.
1.1 For Your Safety
This monitor has been manufactured and tested to ä requirements and EU directive
89/336/EEC, and left the factory in perfect safe condition. To maintain this condition and
ensure safe operation, compliance is required with the instructions and warnings in this
instruction manual and on the monitor.
It must be assumed that safe operation is no longer possible if the monitor:
 is visibly damaged,
 is no longer responding,
 has been stored under unsuitable conditions for a long time or
 has been treated roughly in transit.
If safe operation is no longer ensured because one or more of these criteria are not met, the
monitor must be immediately returned to your local Kistler sales center or distributor for
repair.
The monitor must be disconnected from all power sources prior to commissioning and
before any maintenance, repair or replacement of parts.
Great care is also essential when connecting the various cables. Accidental connection of a
live cable to a signal output can permanently damage the monitor.
1.2 Unpacking
Check all of the packaging of the monitor for any damage in transit. Report such damage to
the freight forwarding company and your local Kistler sales center or distributor. Please
check that all of the included accessories are present before using the monitor for the first
time. Please report any missing parts to your local Kistler sales center or distributor.
1.3 Transportation and Storage
If the monitor is to be transported or stored for a long period of time, take the following
safety precautions:
 The temperature must lie in the range 0 … 50 °C.
 BNC connections must be covered with a non-shorting dust cap.
 Ensure no dirt can get into the monitor.
 The environment must be as dry and free from vibration as possible.
 Store the monitor in such a way that it cannot be subjected to any pressure.
1.4 Supply
The monitor is designed for a voltage range from 18 ... 30 VDC (24 VDC). Protective diodes
are fitted to prevent the monitor from being irreparably damaged if the polarity is reversed.
