The ‘RS-232 to RS-485 Convertor’ is a CE Approved Product. It is designed for use in an
ESD controlled environment i.e. development or production. This means, therefore, that the
user must ensure that there is no possibility of damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD).
Since the devices and equipment to which this product is likely to be connected may well
themselves be susceptible to ESD, this should not pose any difficulty.
For example, if you are handling microcontrollers and EEPROMS etc. then you will already
be used to appropriate precautions, such as the use of anti-static mats, wrist straps and so
on. You should treat your ‘RS-232 to RS-485 Convertor’ with the same care as you would
these type of device. Always ensure that you are not yourself carrying a static charge before
handling the product. Wearing an earthed anti-static wrist strap is recommended.
Equinox have taken great care in designing this product to be compliant with the European
EMC directive. When using the equipment be sure to follow the instructions provided.
Although RF emissions are within prescribed limits, care should be taken if you are using the
product near to sensitive apparatus. If you experience any difficulty please refer to Equinox
technical support.
