GETTING STARTED
3.1.
Unpacking the T102
Unpack the T102 as per the directions in section titled Unpacking and Initial Setup in
the T101 Manual - PN 07266.
There are no shipping screws to be removed in the T102.
3.2.
Unpacking the M501-TRS
There are no shipping screws to be removed in the M501-TRS.
1. Inspect the shipping package for external damage. If damaged, please
advise the shipper first, then Teledyne API (TAPI).
2. Carefully remove the top cover of the converter and check for internal
shipping damage.
a. Remove the screws fastening the top cover to the unit (four per
side).
b. Lift the cover straight up.
WARNING
Never disconnect electronic circuit boards, wiring harnesses or
electronic subassemblies while the unit is under power.
3. Inspect the interior of the instrument to make sure all components are in
good shape and properly seated.
4. Check the connectors of the various internal wiring harnesses and
pneumatic hoses to make sure they are firmly and properly seated.
5. Replace the top cover and fasten with original screws.
NOTE
The M501-TRS will not operate properly with the top cover removed.
The air cooling required to stabilize the temperature of the converter tube is
dependent on air flow patterns that only exist with the top cover in place.
Without the top cover in place, the thermal cutout may overheat and shut off the
heating element.

M501-TRS Ventilation Clearance
Whether the M501-TRS is set up on a bench or installed into an instrument rack, be sure
to leave sufficient ventilation clearance.
