Safety warnings

3.1

General

In operation, the STM32100B-MCKIT starter kit has noninsulated wires, moving or rotating

parts (when connected to a motor), as well as hot surfaces. In case of improper use,

incorrect installation or misuse, there is danger of serious personal injury and damage to

property. All operations, installation and maintenance are to be carried out by skilled

technical personnel (applicable accident prevention rules must be observed).

When the motor control board is supplied with voltages greater than 30 V AC/DC, all of the

board and components must be considered “hot”, and any contact with the board must be

avoided. The operator should stay away from the board as well (risk of projection of material

in case of component destruction, especially when powering the board with high voltages).

The rotating parts of motors are also a source of danger.

The STM32100B-MCKIT starter kit contains electrostatic sensitive components which may

be damaged through improper use.

3.2

Intended use

The STM32100B-MCKIT starter kit is made of components designed for demonstration

purposes and must not be included in electrical installations or machinery. Instructions

about the setup and use of the STM32100B-MCKIT starter kit must be strictly observed.

3.3

Operation

After disconnecting the board from the voltage supply, several parts and power terminals

must not be touched immediately because of possible energized capacitors or hot surfaces.

3.4
