a. Before connecting ac power to the 3585A:
1 . Set the rear-panel VOLTAGE SELECTOR switch to the position that corresponds
to the power-line voltage to be used:
Voltage Selector
1 1 5V
230V
Line Voltage
86V to 127V
(48-440Hz)
189V to 255V
(48-66Hz)

To avoid serious injury, be sure that the ac power cord is discon
nected before removing or installing the ac line fuse.
2. Verify that the proper line fuse is installed in the rear-panel FUSE holder:
Voltage Selector
1 1 5V
230V
Fuse Type
3A, 250V Normal Blo
1 .5A, 250V Normal Blo

To protect operating personnel, the 3585A chassis and cabinet
must be grounded. The 3585A is equipped with a three-wire power
cord which, when plugged into an appropriate receptacle, grounds
the instrument. The offset pin on the power plug is the ground
connection. To preserve this protection feature, the power plug
shall only be inserted in a three-terminal receptacle having a pro
tective earth ground contact. The protective action must not be
negated by the use of an extension cord or adapter that does not
have the required earth ground connection. Grounding one con
ductor of a two-conductor outlet is not sufficient protection.
Ensure that all devices connected to the 3585A are also connected
to the protective earth ground.
b . Verify that the BNC-to-BNC jumper (supplied with the instrument) is connected bet
ween the rear-panel OVEN REF OUT and EXT REF IN connectors. (For information con
cerning the use of an external frequency reference, see the 3585A Operating Manual.)
c. Set the front-panel LINE switch to the OFF position.
