1.1.8 Power Line Noise and Electric Field Noise
Image troubles may be observed when a device as given in Table 1-3 or its power line is
installed nearby or, even if it is distant, it is a heavy duty type. When selecting the installation
site, therefore, whether a source of interference is located nearby or not must be checked.
In case an equipment energized by power of a frequency different from the commercial
frequency employed on the Model S-4800 or the power line for it is located nearby, scan
synchronization with power line frequency will become ineffective. Such a location should be
avoided.
