To prevent risk, personal injury and Event Master devices damages

Please read this chapter carefully. It includes several cautions to prevent damage to Event Master devices. Ensure that you understand and follow all safety guidelines, safety instructions and warnings mentioned in this chapter before installing Event Master devices. After this chapter, additional “warnings” and “cautions” are given depending on the installation procedure. Read and follow these “warnings” and “cautions” as well.

• Read and follow all installation and operation instructions.
• Only trained technicians may install Event Master devices.
• Installation of Event Master devices must be done in a dust free area.
• Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
• CAUTION: Troubleshooting must be performed by a trained technician. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not attempt to service this equipment unless you are qualified to do so.
• Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the system has been damaged in any way, such as liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the system, or the system has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
• FRAGILE: Event Master devices are fragile. Handle these devices with care at all times.
• To prevent injury, minimum 2 persons are required to carry an Event Master series processor or an EC–200 controller.
• Do not remove any covers or panels during normal operation. Removal any of these items will expose sensitive electronic circuits and the unit may be damaged.
• During maintenance operations, always switch off the device and unplug power cords before removing one of the covers.
• Always wear a wrist band which is connected to the ground while handling the ESD sensitive parts.
• Wear insulating gloves during the execution of the installation and maintenance actions to avoid short-circuit.
• Be careful never to drop anything into the device assembly during the service procedures.
• Be careful to always follow the procedures during maintenance operations (spare parts replacement).
• This product is intended to operate from a power source that will not apply more than 230 volts rms between the supply conductors or between both supply conductor and ground. A protective ground connection by way of grounding conductor in the power cord is essential for safe operation.
• This product is grounded through the grounding conductor of the power cord. To avoid electrical shock, plug the power cord into a properly wired receptacle before connecting to the product input or output terminals. A protective-ground connection by way of the grounding conductor in the power cord is essential for safe operation. For 110V installations the power supply cord should be rated at 13amps. For 220V installations the power supply cord should be rated 10amps.
• Use only the power cord and connector specified for your product. Use only a power cord that is in good condition. Refer cord and connector changes to qualified service personnel.
• Replace spare parts only with the same parts supplied by Barco.
• Save the original shipping carton and packing material. They will come in handy if you ever have to ship your equipment. For maximum protection, repack your set as it was originally packed at the factory.

• Rated maximum ambient operating temperature, t_a= 40°C (104°F).

  Note: Rated maximum ambient operating temperature for EC-200/EC-210, ta=35°C (95° F).

• Do not operate this product in an area containing explosive materials.

Malfunction unit

Remove all power from the device and refer servicing to qualified service technicians under the following conditions:

• When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
• If liquid has been spilled into the equipment.
• If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
• If the product does not operate normally when the operating instructions are followed. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions since improper adjustment of the other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the product to normal operation.
• If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
• If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for service.
