Notes:

1): Where measurement conditions have not been specified precisely, the conditions used were an ambient temperature of +23 ℃ +73.4 ℉.
2): When using the interference prevention function, set the emission frequencies for the amplifiers to be covered by the interference prevention function to different frequency values.
However, the interference prevention function does not operate at emission frequency 0 (factory default setting) for the FX-101(P)(-Z) / FX-101(P)-CC2.
3): The voltage withstandability and the insulation resistance values given in the above table are for the amplifier only.
4): Connector attached cable CN-14A-C2 is not attached to the models that have no "-CC2" at the end of the model Nos.
Make sure to use the optional connector attached cable CN-14A(-R)-C□ or the connector CN-14A, or a connector manufactured by J.S.T. Mfg., Ltd.
(contact: SPHD-001T-P0.5, housing: PAP-04V-S).
5): Model Nos. having the suffix "-Z" are M8 plug-in connector type. Make sure to use the optional M8 attached connector cable CN-24A-C□.
6): Protection cover FC-FX-1 has been attached from production in July, 2011.
