Putting into Operation
This chapter describes how to set up the R&S
NGL/NGM power supply series for
the first time.
Risk of injury due to disregarding safety information
Observe the information on appropriate operating conditions provided in the
data sheet to prevent personal injury or damage to the instrument. Read
and observe the basic safety instructions provided with the instrument, in
addition to the safety instructions in the following sections. In particular:
●
Do not open the instrument casing.
Risk of instrument damage due to inappropriate operating conditions
Specific operating conditions are required to ensure accurate measure-
ments and to avoid damage to the instrument. Observe the information on
appropriate operating conditions provided in the basic safety instructions
and the instrument's data sheet.
Instrument damage caused by electrostatic discharge
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage the electronic components of the
instrument and the device under test (DUT). Electrostatic discharge is most
likely to occur when you connect or disconnect a DUT or test fixture to the
instrument's test ports. To prevent electrostatic discharge, use a wrist strap
and cord and connect yourself to the ground, or use a conductive floor mat
and heel strap combination.
