The Handler Computer software monitors the air flow sensor on the laser fil-
ter system. If the sensor detects low air flow, the error message "Laser filter
full" is displayed. When this error message displays, the laser system will
mark 10 more devices as defined in the WinAH400.ini file.
WARNING: Failure to replace the laser vacuum filters at the
appropriate intervals could create a hazardous operating environ-
ment.
WARNING: This procedure should be performed only by quali-
fied service personnel who have successfully completed
Data I/O's laser training class. This procedure involves exposure
to hazardous by-products from the laser marking process.
WARNING: Electric shock hazard. Shut down the PS288 (see
“Shut Down the System” on page 3-12) and turn off the main
power switch.
WARNING: Hazardous materials. Wear safety goggles and dis-
posable protective gloves. Do not clean the laser vacuum filters by
blowing with compressed air, shaking, or using any method that
allows the particulate trapped by the filters to be released into the
work environment.
