Safety & Warnings
The manual includes the following safety precautions:
1. Confirm the supply range: Ensure the unit is used within its specified range. Check the input voltage on the rating label under the unit before plugging into an AC supply outlet. For models with a voltage selector, switch it to the appropriate position before use.
2. Connection of output terminals: The unit is a floating type power supply. For ordinary use, ensure the MASTER/SLAVE switch on the rear panel is set to MASTER, and connect either the (+) or (-) output terminal to the GND terminal (chassis GND) via the shorting bar.
3. Operating environment: Use the unit within the specified ambient temperature range. Avoid placing objects on top of the unit to prevent blocking natural convection. Do not place the unit near heat-emitting devices or use multiple units in a stacked configuration. For best results, use the unit in a well-ventilated environment.
