1.3 About This Manual
The SVI3 Instruction Manual is intended to help experienced field personnel install, setup,
and calibrate an SVI3 in an efficient manner. This manual also provides in-depth
information on SVI3 software, digital interfaces, operation, intrinsic safety configurations,
and specifications. If you experience problems that are not documented in this guide
contact the factory or your local representative. Sales offices are listed on the back cover
of this manual.
1.3.1 Conventions Used in This Manual
Conventions used in this manual are as follows:
• Uppercase, italicized letters are used when referencing a term used in the SVI3
display window. For example, when indicating the term mode, as in setup mode,
and referring to the display/software operation the convention is to spell mode is all
uppercase letters: MODE.
• Italics is used for emphasis on important items.
• Fields where data is entered or user-entered data is italicized.
• Actions performed on buttons, checkboxes, etc. appear bolded. For example: Click
Done.
CAUTION
Use of a low impedance voltage source damages the SVI3. The
SVI3 input must be a current controlled source. The SVI3 will not
function normally if connected directly to a voltage source. However,
direct connection to a current source of up to 30 V will not damage
the SVI3. A proper current source explicitly enables adjustment of
the current in mA, not V.
NOTE : When an SVI3 is turned on it is advisable to apply the air supply before
applying the electrical input signal.
NOTE : Indicates important facts and conditions.
CAUTION
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which if not avoided
could result in property or data damage.
WARNING
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which if not avoided
could result in serious injury.
