Even at these low voltages, there is the potential of electrical component damage caused by accidental short circuits. For maximum electrical safety and minimal risk to the equipment, adhere to the following guidelines:
8
6106 Revision D
AVR200 and AVR300 User Guide
• Ensure that the power receptacles for the AC adapters are properly grounded 3-prong polarized 100-240VAC for use in North America or appropriate safety-rated receptacles for use outside of North America.
• Do not operate the systems with housings open except for service by a factory trained technician.
• Keep liquids away from the systems, and do not operate the equipment in excessively humid conditions, as water can cause short circuits.
• Keep metal filings away from the systems, as such debris can cause short circuits.
• Do not operate the equipment around volatile or flammable solvents, as local electrical heating could cause ignition.
• Disconnect power, or do not plug in the power cord, if hazardous conditions exist such as a damaged or frayed power cord, a damaged or improperly grounded power receptacle, equipment exposure to liquid spills or excessive moisture, or impact damage. Have the system inspected by authorized personnel before operating.
There are no fuses or user-serviceable items in the systems. Systems should only be opened by a factory-trained service technician.
Mechanical Safety
• AVR systems are heavy. To avoid possible back injury, use multiple persons to lift. Bend your knees, not your back.
• Only manually lift AVR systems by the two red carrying handles and shipping lift bar. For more information on lifting the system, refer to “Removing Shipping Retainers” later in this guide. • Motion of the metrology unit is motorized. Motion can be under full computer control or simply under joystick and trackball control with the computer turned off. There are pinch points. Do not place your hands or mechanical items at or near pinch points.
Emergency Stop
The AVR systems are equipped with two emergency stops as follows:
• Red button located on top of the joystick. Refer to the following figure.
• Emergency stop assembly that includes a switch, cable and DB9 connector. The DB9 connector is connected to the rear of the AVR system. This stop button should be placed in a highly visible and accessible location in case of emergency. Refer to the following figure.

Installation and Setup
5.
This section provides information on unpacking, installing, and setting up the AVR systems. SKE metrology systems are normally installed by factory-trained technicians who also provide operator training. The following information covers basic hardware installation if an installer is not available. Refer to “On-Site Installation, Calibration and Training” later in this section for more information on SKE installation and calibration services.
5.1 Planning the Placement of Equipment
When planning the placement of the AVR systems, refer to the following recommendations:
• Ensure a clean operating environment to minimize the accumulation of dirt on the optics and on precision mechanical parts, such as lead screws and encoder scales.
• Ensure the planned installation location has the proper electrical requirements. Refer to “Electrical Specifications” earlier in this document for detailed information.
• Select an installation location where the temperature can be controlled to within 20°C ± 0.5°C (68°F ± 5°F), which is the calibration temperature of the system.
• It is recommended (but not essential) the system be placed on a level work surface using a bubble level for verification.
• AVR systems are designed to be installed on a benchtop at a height of approximately 85 centimeters (33.5 inches), which is the height of the workstation offered by SKE.
• Allow 60 centimeters (24 inches) to right or left side of the metrology unit to position the monitor.
• Allow additional clearance of 30 centimeters (12 inches) on both sides is recommended for general access.
• Allow a minimum of 5 centimeters (2 inches) behind the unit for air flow, as the electronics compartment only uses convective air cooling.
• Allow 50 centimeters (20 inches) of space at the back of the unit to completely open the hinged door for service access. If necessary, the metrology unit can be moved as needed for service.
Refer to “System Specifications” earlier in this document for the detailed information on the dimensions of the system.
5.2 Moving the Equipment
AVR metrology units are shipped in a wooden shipping crate. Use a forklift or pallet cart to move the crate within the building to the final location where the system will be installed. Exercise care in handling the unopened shipping crate, as excessive force or a drop can damage the contents.

5.3 Uncrating the Equipment
Tool Requirements
The following items are required to uncrate and install an AVR system:
• Battery powered drill with Phillips bit (to remove top and sides of shipping crate)
• Crescent wrench (to remove screws which attach shipping tabs to the crate)
• Bubble level (to level workbench or workstation)
Common hand tools
•
Procedure
To uncrate the AVR system, refer to the following figure and perform the following steps:
1. Remove the screws on the top of the crate and carefully remove the top.
2. Remove one of the side panels for access to the contents.

5.4 Removing Shipping Retainers
AVR systems are shipped with multiple mechanisms to prevent movement during shipment. The following information describes the various retainers. Refer to the following figures for locations of these retainers.
Carrying Handles
To remove the carrying handles, refer to the following figure and perform the following steps:
1. Locate the two red carrying handles near the back of the base. The carrying handles can be removed or be left on the system following installation to facilitate possible later lifting.
2. Locate the lift bar toward the front of the base. This bar is used to secure the units in their shipping crate and can also be used for lifting. The bar is normally removed once the system is installed.
3. Slide the bar out to remove it from the system.
4. Remove any tape and packing materials that might have been added for shipment.
