1. Safety instructions
The function generator FG100 conforms to safety
regulations for electrical measuring, control and la-
boratory equipment as specified in DIN EN 61010
Part 1. It is to be operated in dry rooms as appropri-
ate for the use of electrical equipment.
Safe operation of this equipment is guaranteed as
long as it is used as stipulated. However, there is no
guarantee of safety if the equipment is used incor-
rectly or carelessly.
If there is any suspicion that the equipment can no
longer be operated without risk (e.g. if visible dam-
age is detected), the equipment must immediately
be withdrawn from use and secured in such a way
as to prevent its inadvertent operation.
Only use the instrument in a dry environment.
Do not attempt to operate the equipment except
with its own power supply.
Do not apply any external voltage to the output termi-
nals.
Do not exceed the maximum input voltage of 5 V
for the control voltage and trigger.
Electromagnetic waves can be generated, in partic-
ular at high frequencies or with waveforms featuring
a large amount of harmonics, which may cause in-
terference to other equipment in the area.
Ensure that no other equipment is being interfered
with.
If necessary, only operate the FG100 function
generator for short periods.
Do not use experiment leads longer than 5 m.
