Risk of instrument damage
An unsuitable operating site or test setup can damage the instrument and
connected devices. Ensure the following operating conditions before you
switch on the instrument:
●
Read and observe the "Basic Safety Instructions" delivered as a printed
brochure with the instrument. In addition, read and observe the safety
instructions in the following sections.
●
Observe the operating conditions specified in the data sheet. Note that
the general safety instructions also contain information on operating
conditions.
●
Position the instrument as described in the following sections.
Make sure that all fan openings are unobstructed and the airflow perfo-
rations are unimpeded. The minimum distance from the wall is 10 cm.
●
Signal levels at the input connectors are all within the specified ranges.
●
Signal outputs are correctly connected and are not overloaded.
Risk of electrostatic discharge (ESD)
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage the electronic components of the
instrument and the device under test (DUT). ESD is most likely to occur
when you connect or disconnect a DUT or test fixture to the instrument's
test ports. To prevent ESD, use a wrist strap and cord and connect yourself
to the ground, or use a conductive floor mat and heel strap combination.
For details, refer to the basic safety instructions delivered as a printed bro-
chure with the instrument.
