1.4.Disclaimer and Safety

The DP Series PCI Digitizer cards have been designed to operate in a standard PCI slot found inside most personal computers. The model DC Series CompactPCI/PXI Digitizers have been designed to operate inside a CompactPCI/PXI crate. The crate provides the modules with all needed power. Agilent Technologies does not recommend operation of the DC Series modules outside of a CompactPCI/PXI crate.

CAUTION:

Do not exceed the maximum input voltage rating! The maximum input voltage for 50 Ω input

 

impedance is ±5 V. The maximum input for 1 MΩ input impedance is ±100 V (dc + ac) except

 

for the DC2x1A/AR models where it is ±300 V (dc + ac) .

1.5.Warning Regarding Medical Use

The Digitizer cards are not designed with components and testing procedures that would ensure a level of reliability suitable for use in treatment and diagnosis of humans. Applications of these cards involving medical or clinical treatment can create a potential for accidental injury caused by product failure, or by errors on the part of the user. These cards are not intended to be a substitute for any form of established process or equipment used to monitor or safeguard human health and safety in medical treatment.

WARNING:

The modules discussed in this manual have not been designed for making direct measurements

 

on the human body. Users who connect an Acqiris module to a human body do so at their own

 

risk.
