Step 1: Unpack and Inspect the Modules
Step 1: Unpack and Inspect the Modules
The modules are shipped in materials which prevent damage from static. The modules should only be
removed from the packaging in an anti-static area ensuring that correct anti-static precautions are taken.
Store all modules in anti-static envelopes when not in use.
ESD
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage or destroy elec-
tronic components. Use a static-safe work station to per-
form all work on electronic assemblies. The figure (left)
shows a static-safe work station using two types of ESD pro-
tection: conductive table-mat and wrist-strap combination,
and conductive floor-mat and heel-strap combination. Both
types, when used together, provide a significant level of ESD
protection. Of the two, only the table-mat and wrist-strap
combination provides adequate ESD protection when used
alone. To ensure user safety, the static-safe accessories
must provide at least 1 M Ω of isolation from ground.
DO NOT use these techniques for a static-safe work station when working on circuitry with a voltage potential
greater than 500 volts.
Inspect for Damage
After unpacking an instrument, inspect it for any shipping damage. Report any damage to the shipping agent
immediately, as such damage is not covered by the warranty (see warranty information at beginning of this
document).
To avoid damage when handling a module, do not touch exposed connector pins.
See www.keysight.com/find/tips for information on preventing damage to your keysight equipment.
Return an Instrument for Service
Should it become necessary to return an instrument for repair or service, follow the steps below:
It is recommended that you return all modules and cables for repair and calibration. If your Keysight M9300A
PXIe Frequency Reference is operating properly, you need not send it in with the other modules because
