Safety Notices

General Considerations

Please review the following safety precautions carefully before putting your

instrument into operation so as to avoid any personal injuries or damages to the

instrument and any product connected to it. To prevent potential hazards, please use

the instrument in compliance with regulations of this manual.

Use Proper Power Cord

Only the power cord designed for the instrument and authorized by local country

could be used.

Ground the Instrument

The instrument is grounded through the Protective Earth lead of the power cord. To

avoid electric shock, it is essential to connect the earth terminal of the power cord to

the Protective Earth terminal before any inputs or outputs.

Connect Test Leads Correctly

The test leads must be connected in strict accordance with regulations in this guide.

Observe all Terminal Ratings

To avoid fire or shock hazard, observe all ratings and markers on the instrument and

check your manual for more information about ratings before connecting.

Use Proper Overvoltage Protection

Make sure that no overvoltage (such as those caused by a thunderstorm) can reach

the product, or else the operator might expose to danger of electrical shock.

Do Not Operate Without Covers

Do not operate the instrument with covers or panels removed.

Use Proper Fuse

Please use the specified fuses.

Avoid Circuit or Wire Exposure

RIGOL

User’s Guide for DP1116A

III

Do not touch exposed junctions and components when the unit is powered.

Do Not Operate With Suspected Failures

If you suspect damage occurs to the instrument, have it inspected by qualified service

personnel before further operations. Any maintenance, adjustment or replacement

especially to circuits or accessories must be performed by RIGOL authorized

personnel.

Keep Well Ventilated

Inadequate ventilation may cause an increase of temperature or damage to the

device. So please keep well ventilated and inspect the intake and fan regularly.

Do Not Operate in Wet Conditions

In order to avoid short circuiting to the interior of the device or electric shock, please

do not operate in a humid environment.

Do Not Operate in an Explosive Atmosphere

In order to avoid damages to the device or personal injuries, it is important to

operate the device away from an explosive atmosphere.

Keep Product Surfaces Clean and Dry

To avoid the influence of dust or moisture in air, please keep the surface of device

clean and dry.

Electrostatic Prevention

Operate in an electrostatic discharge protective area environment to avoid damages

induced by static discharges. Always ground both the internal and external

conductors of the cable to release static before connecting.

Handling Safety

Please handle with care during transportation to avoid damages to buttons, knob,

interfaces and other parts on the panels.

First Use of DP1116A

Prior to making any connections to the instrument, read the section of “General

Inspection” carefully to avoid any possible or potential dangers and carry out

necessary check and inspections following the requirements below when you first

use the DP1116A.

Power Requirements

Use the power cord that is specifically designed for the DP1116A to connect the

instrument and the AC power which delivers 100 V, 115 V, 220 V or 230 V, 50 Hz to 60

Hz. Users should select a voltage scale that meets the standards in their own country

through the Power voltage selector (see Figure 1-2) at the rear panel and use an

appropriate fuse.

Note:

250 V, T4 A fuse: 100 V and 115 V

250 V, T2.5 A fuse: 220 V and 230 V

To change the voltage scale of the instrument, please:

1. Turn off the power switch/button at the front/rear panel and remove the power

cord.

2. Check if the fuse installed before leaving factory (250 V, T2.5 A) can match with

the selected voltage scale; if not, change it.

3. Regulate the voltage selector to a desired scale using a straight screwdriver.
