WARNING
Death or severe injury can occur if hazardous voltages are connected to the
Bode 100.
Bode 100 is a SELV device (SELV = Safety Extra Low Voltage according to IEC
60950-1).
► Do not apply voltage levels >50 VDC or >25 VAC to the inputs of Bode 100.
► Be aware that no indication on Bode 100 shows that the output is active. This
could be especially critical if amplifiers are connected to Bode 100.
