Safety Information

IMPORTANT! Proper care in handling should be taken when using any precision optical test

equipment. Scratched or contaminated optical connectors can impact the performance of the instrument.

NOTE! FOCIS WiFi2 contains no user serviceable parts. This instrument must be returned to AFL or

authorized agents for repair.

IMPORTANT! It is important to keep connector end-faces on the launch and receive cables and those

on the Fiber Under Test (FUT) clean, to ensure accurate measurements and operation.

CAUTION! Never view a live ber. Never look directly into the optical outputs of ber optic network

equipment, test equipment, patch cords and jumpers. Laser radiation is harmful to eyes.

WARNING! Use only the specied AC adapter. Use of another type of AC adapter can damage the

instrument and create the danger of re and electrical shock.

WARNING! To avoid the danger of re and electrical shock:

• Never use a voltage that is different from that for which the AC adapter is rated.

• Do not plug the unit into a power outlet that is shared by other devices.

• Never modify the power cord or excessively bend, twist, or pull it.

• Do not allow the power cord to become damaged. Do not place heavy objects on the power cord or

expose it to heat.

• Never touch the AC adapter while your hands are wet.

• Should the power cord become seriously damaged (internal wiring exposed or shorted), contact the

manufacturer to request servicing.

NOTE! Refer to your company’s safety procedures when working with optical systems.

NOTE! Follow your company’s approved cleaning procedures.
