Unpacking Your GPIB-120B
Follow these steps when unpacking your GPIB-120B.
1.
Verify that the package you received contains the following:
•
GPIB-120B Isolator/Expander
•
12 VDC power supply
•
Power cord appropriate for your location
2.
Inspect the shipping container and contents for damage. If the container is damaged, and
the damage appears to have been caused in shipment, file a claim with the carrier. If the
equipment is damaged, do not attempt to operate it. Contact National Instruments for
instructions. Retain the shipping material for possible inspection by carrier or reshipment
of the equipment.
3.
Verify that the voltage you will be using is in the input range of your power adapter. The
GPIB-120B ships with a power adapter capable of working with an input AC voltage
between 100 V and 240 V. This adapter provides 12 VDC to the GPIB-120B. This adapter
can be replaced as long as the replacement provides the GPIB-120B with a DC voltage
between 10 VDC and 18 VDC and has appropriate safety certification marks for country of
use. Refer to Appendix C,
Specifications
, for more information.
