About Standby Mode
Even if you press the power switch to turn off this instrument, the instrument remains in
standby mode as long as the power cord is connected to the outlet. In standby mode, some
of the internal circuits operate and may generate heat. Unless necessary, keep the power
cord disconnected from the outlet.
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
Rack Mounting
This instrument can be mounted on an EIA 19-inch rack.
If you are mounting this instrument on a rack, be sure to provide additional support for the
instrument. If you only use the flanges on the front panel to mount the instrument, the
instrument case may be deformed, or the instrument may fall.
Before mounting, remove the four feet from the bottom of the instrument.
You can remove the feet by pressing the tab and pulling the feet out.
1.2.6
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.
