Introduction

Install the instrument

The 2600B can be used on a bench or in a rack. Please see 

the instructions that came with your rack-mount kit if you are 

installing the 2600B in a rack.

Connect line power

The Series 2600B operates from a line voltage of 100 V to 

 

240 V at a frequency of 50 Hz or 60 Hz. Line voltage is 

automatically sensed (there are no switches to set). Make sure 

the operating voltage in your area is compatible.

To keep users safe, always read and follow all safety 

warnings provided with each of the instruments in 

your system.

The power cord supplied with the Series 2600B 

contains a separate ground wire for use with 

grounded outlets. When proper connections are 

made, the instrument chassis is connected to 

power line ground through the ground wire in the 

power cord. Failure to use a grounded outlet may 

result in personal injury or death due to electric 

shock.
