2.7 Return for Service
If the instrument should be returned to NARDA for service, please complete
the service questionnaire enclosed with the Operating Manual and attach it
to the instrument.
To minimize the repair time, be as specific as possible when describing the
failure. If the failure only occurs under certain conditions, explain how to
duplicate the failure.
If possible, reusing of the original packaging to ship the equipment is
preferable.
In case other package should be used, ensure to wrap the instrument in
heavy paper or plastic.
Use a strong shipping box and use enough shock absorbing material all
around the equipment to provide a firm cushion and prevent movement in
the shipping box; in particular protect the front panel.
Seal the shipping box securely.
Mark the shipping box FRAGILE to encourage careful handling.
Nowadays there are restrictions on the shipment of hazardous materials, eg.
some types of lithium batteries.
Please, check the proper, safe, shipping mode, with the help of your courier,
in the case the product is equipped with batteries.
2.8 Equipment Cleaning
Use a clean, dry, non abrasive cloth for external cleaning of the equipment.
To clean the equipment do not use any solvent, thinner, turpentine,
acid, acetone or similar matter to avoid damage to external plastic or
display surfaces.
2.9 Equipment
ventilation
To allow correct equipment ventilation ensure that the vent grids on
the bottom of the analyzer are free by any obstructing object.
2.10 Hardware
Installation
PMM CA0010 is delivered ready to use from factory. Remove the instrument
from its cardboard shipping box, connect the AC/DC power supply properly
and shift the back toggle switch to the “ON” position.
After having been switched ON, the PMM CA0010 boots with its internal
BIOS and runs the firmware, which manages the analyzer.
At the beginning, the instrument performs an internal diagnostic test to check
if everything is working properly.
The boot sequence is very fast and the receiver is ready to use in less than
one second after having switched it ON.
During the switch-on procedure, if the PC or an active 9010F is connected to
the analyzer, it is normal to hear the click of an internal relay commutation.
When the sequence is completed, the unit is ready to operate.
A proper system setup requires the CA0010 is connected to the 9010F Emi
Receiver through the supplied DB9-male-to-DB9-male short cable.
Furthermore, the CA0010 RF Output must be connected to the RF Input of
the 9010F, using the supplied BNC-male to BNC-male short coaxial cable,
as visible in fig. 2-1.
Use the internal LISN, or connect the output of any external one to the RF
input of the CA0010.
