Getting started
Your instrument was carefully inspected electrically and mechanically before
shipment. After unpacking all items from the shipping carton, check for any
obvious signs of physical damage that may have occurred during transit. Report
damage to the shipping agent immediately. Save the original packing carton
for possible future shipment.
The following items are included with every instrument order:
Pulse generator with line cord
Rack mount/handle kit
Printed user manual
Accessories as ordered
Power requirements
CAUTION.
The pulse generator can be damaged by static discharge or applied
voltages. To avoid damaging the pulse generator, take appropriate precautions
when using the instrument. Always discharge the coaxial cables and connectors
before connecting them to the pulse generator or instrument-under-test.
CAUTION.
Operating the instrument on an incorrect line voltage can cause
damage, possibly voiding the warranty. To avoid this, operate the instrument
with the correct line voltage.
The instrument has an AC Mains Voltage Selector switch on the rear panel used to
select the proper voltage, power, and frequency selection. The following table
describes the switch selections and fuse information for your instrument. Check
to ensure the operating voltage in your area is compatible.
