Safety Precautions Our company is committed to making products of the highest quality and reliability. Nevertheless, all electrical components are subject to natural deterioration, and durability or characteristics of a product will depend on the operating environment and conditions of use. Continued use after such deterioration could lead to overheating, smoke or fire. Always use the product in conjunction with proper fire-prevention, safety and maintenance measures to avoid accidents, reduction in product life expectancy or break-down. Example : Safety equipments and devices Traffic signals Burglar and disaster prevention Control or safety device for automotive or train etc. Head the following precautions to prevent injury or accidents. 1) Do not use this product under any circumstances in which the range of its ratings, environment conditions or other specifications are exceeded. Such use may generate abnormally high levels of heat, emit smoke, etc., possibly resulting in damage to circuitry or other accident. 2) Do not use the product if it has been disassembled, remodeled or modified. This could cause fire or accidents (Electrical shock etc.). 3) Do not insert anything in this products' openings. 4) This product is designed for indoor use. Do not use it in any outdoor environment or in places where it could be in contact with water. 5) Always connect the sensor unit (USB, AC adaptor) before plugging in the power supply. 6) Always use an AC adaptor as specified on page 2, and ensure it is properly connected. Incorrect connections may cause malfunctions, generate abnormal high levels of heat, emit smoke, etc., possibly resulting in fire or causing electric shocks. 7) If smoke or smell should come out from the product, stop the usage immediately. If you continue, it could cause fire. 8) Make sure to install the product in a place that can support its weight (Mass). Any fall may cause accidents resulting in damages to the product or its surroundings. Therefore, for safety reasons, use the fall prevention wire or the wiring fixation cramp for installation for safety reasons . 9) Ensure a periodical maintenance. If the screws get rusted or loose, the product may fall and be damaged. Issued on Sep. 30th,2010 Product Name 3D Image sensor Model No. Ver. 1.2 EKL3104 Page: 5 6. Operating Precautions. 6-1 Basic Precautions The 3D Image Sensor calculates the distance to a target by measuring the "Time-of-Flight" of near-emitted infrared rays. Efficiency and reliability of the system may vary depending on actual operating conditions. Always consider the following factors: 1) High reflectance target: For example if the target is close to the sensor (closer than 1.2m(3.94ft)) or in case the sensor receives light reflected by a mirror, the amount of power received increases considerably and may cause a saturation of the CCD element, resulting in distance measuring problems or errors. Besides, the measuring errors can also occur in the target's surrounding area. 2) Intense ambient illumination: The renge resolution may diminish if a light source (such as sunlight, incandescent light or heater etc.,) whose emission spectrum, containing near-infrared frequencies exceeding the specifications, exists inside the detection area of the sensor. If the light source is too powerful, the CCD element in the sensor unit could saturate, resulting in distance measuring errors or malfunctions. 3) Fast moving targets: Fast moving targets may produce distance measuring errors from miss calculation at the outline of the target. 4) Distance from wall or floor: If wall or floor is close to the sensor (closer than 1.2 m (3.94ft)), it may produce distance measuring errors from reflection ofemitted near-infrared rays. 5) Other precautions: The range resolution may diminish depending on the target's reflectance, distance to the sensor or position. 6-2 Usage and Storage Conditions 1) This product is destined for indoor use only. Do not install or store in outdoor environments. 2) Do not use or store in places where condensation or freezing can occur or near a cooling or heating system. Do not leave the product exposed to direct sunlight for a prolonged period. 3) This product is neither waterproof nor dustproof. Do not use or store in the following environments: a) Places with high humidity level, high temperature, low temperature b) Places exposed to corrosive gas, dust, gasoline, chemicals (including detergent) or water vapor. c) Places where the sensor would be exposed to condensation or freezing. 4) Avoid exposing the product to shocks, vibration which could cause malfunctions. 5) Do not touch the front panel or the lens with your hands. It could cause reduced performance. Do not place any cover on the sensor's front panel. 6) Do not use in environments with temperatures above 50 (122F), the unit may malfunction. Always allow for proper ventilation. If installed on a wall or a rack, please leave at least 10cm(3.94inch) between the product's vent and closest wall and allow air to freely circulate around it. 6-3 Maintenance Always turn off the power supply before maintenance, otherwise it could cause injuries or accidents. 1) Wipe the front panel with a soft paper towel to remove the dirt. 2) Do not apply any chemicals such as paint, benzine, aromatic liquid, pesticides etc., on the product.
