Configuring The Instrument 2-2
WARNING
For maximum safety, do not touch the product, test
cables, or any other instrument parts
while power is
applied to the circuit under test. ALWAYS remove power
from the entire test system before connecting cables or
jumpers, installing or removing cards from the computer,
or making internal changes such as changing the
module address.
Do not touch any object that could provide a current path to the
common side of the circuit under test or power line (earth) ground.
Always keep your hands dry while handling the instrument.
When using test fixtures, keep the lid closed while power is applied
to the device under test. Safe operation requires that the computer lid
be closed at all times during operation. Carefully read the Safety
Precautions instructions that are supplied with your computer.
Before performing any maintenance, disconnect the line cord and all
test cables.
Maintenance should be performed by qualified service personnel
only.
Performance
Checks
The instrument has been inspected for mechanical and electrical
performance before shipment from the factory. It is free of physical
defects and in perfect electrical order. Check the instrument for
damage in transit and perform the electrical procedures outlined in
the section entitled Unpacking and Initial Inspection.
Grounding
Requirements
To insure the safety of operating personnel, the U.S. O.S.H.A.
(Occupational Safety and Health) requirement and good engineering
practice mandate that the instrument panel and enclosure be "earth"
grounded. Although BNC housings are isolated from the front panel,
the metal part is connected to earth ground.
