2. LIABILITY AND SAFE USE OF THIS UNIT
DTI Controller hardware, DTI Tool and the DTI
firmware are experimental products designed to
develop and test electrical systems incorporating
electric motors or actuators. Electrical systems can
cause danger to humans, property and nature;
therefore, precautions shall be taken to avoid any risk.
Under no circumstances shall the device be used
where humans or property are put to risk without thoroughly validating and testing the
whole system. Software and hardware interact in various ways, and developers cannot
foresee all possible combinations of hardware used together with software, nor
problems that can occur in these different combinations. Tool and the DTI firmware are
experimental software designed to develop and test. Electrical systems can cause
danger to humans, property and nature; therefore, precautions shall be taken to avoid
any risk.
Things that can happen, even when using the correct settings, are
electrical failure
fire
electric shock
hazardous smoke
overheating motors and actuators
overloaded power sources, causing fire or explosions (e.g. Lithium Ion
Batteries)
motors or actuators stopping from spinning/moving
motors or actuators locking in, acting like a brake (full stop)
motors or actuators losing control over torque production (uncontrolled
acceleration or braking)
interferences with other systems
other non-intended or unforeseeable behaviour of the system
DTI Tool and the DTI firmware are developer tools that for safety reasons may only be
used
by experts and experienced users, knowing exactly what they do.
following safety standards applicable in the area of usage.
under safe conditions where software or hardware malfunction will not lead to
death, injuries or severe property damage.
