CAUTION
Electrical channel input circuits and the trigger input circuit can be damaged by
electrostatic discharge (ESD). Therefore, avoid applying static discharges to the
front-panel input connectors. Prior to connecting any coaxial cable to the connectors,
momentarily short the center and outer conductors of the cable together. Avoid
touching the front-panel input connectors without first touching the frame of the
instrument. Be sure that the instrument is properly earth-grounded to prevent buildup
of static charge. Wear a wrist-strap or heel-strap.
CAUTION
Optical channel fiber-optic connectors on plug-in modules are easily damaged when
connected to dirty or damaged cables and accessories. When you use improper
cleaning and handling techniques, you risk expensive instrument repairs, damaged
cables, and compromised measurements. Before you connect any fiber-optic cable to
the N1000A, refer to information in the on-line help.
