Before you start
Please use the supplied USB lead - it have been tested to work with your ASA100. Thin
USB cables tend to exhibit higher resistance which may cause in-correct operation of your
device.
Ensure that all DUT* capacitors and energy storage devices are fully discharged before
using the ASA100.
The SIGNAL connection is protected by a large 'Transzorb' style device, but damage WILL
occur if the ASA100 is placed across a fully charged DCLINK capacitor.
The COMMON connection is connected directly to the chassis of the instrument and
therefore the USB 0V and shell.
Before connecting your device, please ensure you have installed the USB driver.
If you wish to make a permanent safety connection to EARTH read Earthing for function
and safety section.
