Step 1
Unpack your Keithley 4200-SCS
What’s in the box:
• 4200-SCS System – SMUs are built-in, and PreAmps are installed on the rear panel of the mainframe. A
PreAmp adds five lower current source-measure ranges to an SMU (10nA, 1nA, 100pA, 10pA, and 1pA).
The PreAmps can be removed from the rear panel and mounted remotely on a tester.
• Cables – 2 for each SMU.
• Y-Cable – Use to connect keyboard (with pointing device) to mainframe.
• Power cord
• 4200-SCS KTE Interactive CD-ROM
• 4200-SCS Complete Reference CD-ROM
How to lift:
• Lift the 4200-SCS from the bottom.
• Do not lift from the front bezel.
• Set on a bench or install in a rack with the optional slide rack mounting kit.
Step 2
System connections – Power cord, keyboard, and printer (optional)
Basic system connections to the 4200-SCS (shown in
Figure 2
) include the keyboard (which has a built-in
pointing device), the supplied power cord, and an optional printer. If using a USB printer, connect it to the
USB port.
WARNING
Plug the female end of the supplied power cord into the
4200-SCS, but DO NOT connect the male end to line power at
this time. Steps 2 and 3 of this Startup Guide must be performed
with the line power disconnected.
