Direct Connections to the PXIe-5603 or PXIe-5605
The PXIe-5603 or PXIe-5605 is a precision RF instrument that is sensitive to ESD and
transients. Ensure you are making proper direct connections to the PXIe-5603 or PXIe-5605 to
avoid damaging the device.
Caution
Apply external signals only while the PXIe-5603 or PXIe-5605 is
powered on. Applying external signals while the device is powered off may cause
damage.
•
Ensure you are properly grounded when manipulating cables or antennas connected to the
PXIe-5603 or PXIe-5605 RF IN connector.
•
If you are using noninsulated devices, such as an RF antenna, ensure the devices are
maintained in a static-free environment.
•
If you are using an active device, such as a preamplifier or switch routed to the
PXIe-5603 or PXIe-5605 RF IN connector, ensure that the device cannot generate signal
transients greater than the RF and DC specifications of the PXIe-5603 or PXIe-5605 RF
IN connector.
