Shorting and Applying External Input to the Output Connectors
Do not short the output connectors. Doing so may damage the instrument.
Do not apply an external signal to the output connectors. Doing so may damage the
instrument or devices that are connected to it.
1.2.3 Mechanical
Shock
This instrument contains sensitive components, so it may be damaged if it is dropped or
otherwise exposed to a strong shock.
1.2.4 Electrostatic
Damage
Electronic components can be damaged by static discharge. Static electricity can build up
in the core wire of a coaxial cable. Before connecting a coaxial cable to the instrument,
short the core wire of the cable with the external conductor.
1.2.5 Warming
Up
To ensure more accurate measurements, turn on the instrument approximately 30 minutes
before you intend to use it to allow its internal temperature to stabilize.
1.2.6 Backup
Battery
If the backup battery runs out, the LV 5381 exhibits the following behavior. If this happens,
contact your local LEADER agent.
•
The last memory feature is disabled.
•
The clock is initialized.
•
The contents of all presets are deleted.
To continually use these features, we recommend that you replace the backup battery with
a new one every five years after you purchase the LV 5381. Also, save the presets to USB
memory.
You cannot replace the backup battery yourself. Contact your local LEADER agent.
