The GEMINI-1 Programmer is a CE Approved Product. It is designed only for use in a

development environment only. This means 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 GEMINI-1 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.

ESD Points to remember

●Work in a static-free environment.

●Wear an earthed wrist strap when handling either the programmer

and/or any programmable device.
