Installing the Test Set Into a System Rack
The HP 85043C system rack is the recommended model to use. To
rack-mount the test set into a system configured with the HP 8510C, refer to
the “Installation” chapter of the HP 8510C On-Site Service Manual and to
the HP 85043C System Rack Manual.
Installing the Test Set
on a Bench
When installing the test set for use on a bench, place it on a grounded
anti-static work surface to reduce the chance of ESD damage. The antistatic
surface should extend far enough in front of the test set to provide effective
protection for the test ports and cable ends. See Figure 2-2.
A grounding receptacle is provided on the test set as an alternate grounding
point for your anti-static wrist-strap.
