  2. Please read the terminals description and wiring by rule strictly. Any damage caused by improper operations will be out of the range of our guarantee.
  3. Please connect the ‘GND’ before all the other wiring especially under the serious electrostatic environment.
  4. Keep the exposed part of wireless than 5mm to avoid unexpected connection, and result in machinery damage.
  5. If the distance between the power supply and the device is little long, please do not use the Internet cable or other types of cable instead. When choosing the power supply cable, you should consider that the transmission distance may cause voltage attenuation.
