Installing the N1000A
Step 2. Work at a Static-Safe Workstation
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage or destroy electronic components. All
work on electronic assemblies should be performed at a static-safe workstation as
shown in
Figure 7
. The following suggestions may reduce ESD damage that occurs
during testing and servicing operations.
• Personnel should be grounded with a resistor-isolated wrist strap before
removing any assembly from the unit.
• Be sure all instruments are properly earth-grounded to prevent a buildup of
static charge.
Figure 7
Example of Static-Safe Workstation
WARNING
These techniques for a static-safe workstation should not be used when working on
circuitry with a voltage potential greater than 500 volts.
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. More information can be found in
the on-line help.
