EXPLICIT DEFINITIONS
WORD DEFINITION Personal injury, fire hazard or electric R WARNING shock may occur. No risk or personal injury, fire or electric shock.
SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL. This manual contains important safety and operating instructions for the ID-RP2 system.
PRECAUTIONS
R DANGER!ID-RP2 installation, particularly IDRP2L and antennas, is intended for professional installation only. [. . . ] We recommend to use the rack that has rails due to the weigh of the ID-RP2D and ID-RP2V is approx. 7. 5 kg (16. 5 lbs), respectively.
I Rubber feet attachment
q · Cross section
Attach the supplied rubber feet onto the bottom of the ID-RP2C/D/V as shown at left when not installed into 19-inch rack. Desktop operation can be performed.
w
I Grounding
To prevent electrical shock, television interference (TVI), broadcast interference (BCI) and other problems, ground the transceiver through the GROUND terminal on the rear panel. For best results, connect a heavy gauge wire or strap to a long earth-sunk copper rod. Make the distance between the [GND] terminal and ground as short as possible.
R WARNING: NEVER connect the [GND] terminal to a gas or electric pipe, since the connection could cause an explosion or electric shock.
