1.1. Warnings
• To avoid electric arcing and hazards to personnel and electrical contacts, never
connect/disconnect the servo drive while the power source is on.
• Power cables can carry a high voltage, even when the motor is not in motion. Disconnect
the Hornet and Bee from all voltage sources before it is opened for servicing.
• The Hornet and Bee servo drives contain grounding conduits for electric current protection.
Any disruption to these conduits may cause the instrument to become hot (live) and
dangerous.
• After shutting off the power and removing the power source from your equipment, wait at
least 1 minute before touching or disconnecting parts of the equipment that are normally
loaded with electrical charges (such as capacitors or contacts). Measuring the electrical
contact points with a meter, before touching the equipment, is recommended.
• Cleaning after soldering. To avoid damage to the product’s acrylic coating, the Hornet and
Bee must not be cleaned after soldering with soluble solvents or water-based cleaners. For

1.2. Cautions
• The Hornet and Bee servo drives contain hot surfaces and electrically-charged components
during operation.
• The maximum DC power supply connected to the instrument must comply with the
parameters outlined in this guide.
• When connecting the Hornet and Bee to an approved 12 to 95 VDC auxiliary power supply,
connect it through a line that is separated from hazardous live voltages using reinforced or
double insulation in accordance with approved safety standards.
• Before switching on the Hornet and Bee, verify that all safety precautions have been
observed and that the installation procedures in this manual have been followed.
