Important Safety Information
The 580XL instrument is a laser device conforming to the requirements of
CDRH, CFR 1040, Subchapter J. While there is no potential for eye damage
due to unaided direct exposure, users should always avoid looking directly
into the output port. The use of optical viewing instruments, such as micro-
scopes, magnifiers, etc., should always be avoided. The use of such devices
around active fibers can focus an intense beam of light energy onto the
retina of the eye, which can result in permanent damage.
Laser hazard:
• When performing measurements on fiber optic systems, avoid eye
exposure to any open-ended fibers, optical connectors, optical inter-
faces, or other sources because they may be connected to active laser
transmitters.
• Do not look into the optical port when a source is turned on.
• Avoid looking at the free end of a test fiber, i.e., the end not connected
to the instrument. If possible, direct the free end toward a non-reflec-
tive surface.
Failure to observe these precautions may result in injury.
