Revisions and Updates
Manual
Agilent Technologies instruments are identified by a two-part, ten-character serial number, such as 3138A-00101. The first
five characters (e.g. 3138A) are the serial prefix, which is the same for all identically made instruments. The last five digits
(e.g. 00101) are a unique serial number assigned to each instrument. If a significant design change is made, the prefix
changes but the last five numbers continue in sequence.
This manual applies to Agilent 66000A MPS Mainframes with the same serial prefixes and serial numbers equal to or
higher than the ones shown on the title page. If the prefix number on your mainframe is higher than the one on the title page,
then the mainframe was made after publication of the manual and may have hardware and/or firmware differences not
covered in the manual. If there are such differences, they are documented in one or more "Manual Changes" sheets sent with
the manual.
Firmware
This manual applies to mainframes that run on software revisions A.00.01 through A.00.05. The mainframe ROM chip has a
label that specifies the firmware revision.
Safety Considerations
The Agilent 66000A MPS Mainframe is a Safety Class 1 instrument that has a protective earth terminal. Refer to the Safety
Summary page at the beginning of this manual for general safety procedures and the meaning of safety symbols appearing in
the manual and on the mainframe.
