Safety
Information to the user
In all applications involving the use of machine
tools or CMMs, eye protection is recommended.
Information to the machine supplier/
installer
It is the machine supplier's responsibility to ensure
that the user is made aware of any hazards
involved in operation, including those mentioned
in Renishaw product literature, and to ensure
that adequate guards and safety interlocks are
provided.
Under certain circumstances, the probe signal
may falsely indicate a probe seated condition. Do
not rely on probe signals to halt the movement of
the machine.
Information to the equipment installer
All Renishaw equipment is designed to comply
with the relevant EU and FCC regulatory
requirements. It is the responsibility of the
equipment installer to ensure that the following
guidelines are adhered to, in order for the product
to function in accordance with these regulations:
•
any interface MUST be installed in a position
away from any potential sources of electrical
noise, i.e. power transformers, servo drives
etc;
•
all ground connections should be connected
to the machine 'star point' (the 'star point'
is a single point return for all equipment
ground and screen cables)
.
This is very
important and failure to adhere to this
can cause a potential difference between
grounds;
•
all screens must be connected as outlined in
the user instructions;
•
cables must not be routed alongside high
current sources, i.e. motor power supply
cables etc, or be near high speed data lines;
•
cable lengths should always be kept to a
minimum.
Equipment operation
If this equipment is used in a manner not specified
