Introduction

 

System 40 Custom Coaxial RF Signal Routing Systems provide an integrated signal routing solution designed and built to cus-
tomer specifications.  The System 40 typically includes a Keithley Model 7001 or 7002 switch control unit, microwave coaxial
switches, a power supply, and a 19-inch rack mount assembly.  The IEEE-488 compatible switch controller operates the coaxial
switches and provides an easy to read display of switch status.  Switch control algorithms are pre-programmed and stored in the
switch control unit’s non-volatile memory at the factory.  If desired, the switch system can be reconfigured by reprogramming
the controller for new applications.

Due to the custom nature of the System 40, this Instruction Manual contains general system instructions.  Specific information
for your system is provided in the as-built documentation package.

System 40 documentation consists of:

• System 40 Custom Coaxial RF Signal Routing Systems Instruction Manual

• Model 7001 or 7002 Switch System Manual

• Additional Keithley standard product manuals per system configuration

• As-built documentation package including:

— Component list
— Wiring list
— Programming list

 

Warranty

 

Warranty information is located at the front of this manual. Note that coaxial switches are warranted for a period of one
year or their specified lifetime.

 

System 40 installation guidelines

 

WARNING

 

The information on  the following pages is intended for qualified service personnel 
only.  Do not attempt these procedures unless you are qualified to do so.

 

CAUTION 

 

To prevent flexing of the connections and possible damage, ensure that the Model 
7020-MWS card is secured with its thumbscrew to the Model 7001/2 rear panel, and 
that the cable assembly is secured with its two screws to the 7020-MWS card.
