shipment. If there is damage, notify the shipping carrier and the nearest Agilent Sales and Support Office
immediately. The list of Agilent Sales and Support Offices is at the back of this guide.  Warranty
information is printed in the front of this guide.

Packaging Material

Until you have checked out the ac source, save the shipping carton and packing materials in case the unit
has to be returned. If you return the ac source for service, attach a tag identifying the model number and
the owner. Also include a brief description of the problem.

Items Supplied

Check that the following items are included with your ac source. Some items are installed in the unit.

Power Cord

A power cord appropriate for your location. The cord may or may not be terminated in
a power plug (see "Options" in 

Chapter

 1). If the cord is not included, contact your

nearest 

Agilent

 Sales and Support Offices (refer to the list at the back of this guide).

Sense/Digital connector

a 4-terminal digital plug that connects to the back of the unit.
a 7-terminal sense plug that connects to the back of the unit.

Safety covers

Ac input cover with strain relief
Ac output cover
Fuse cover

Manuals

User’s Guide
Programming Guide
Quick Start Guide
Quick Reference Card
Regulatory Test Solutions Guides (supplied with Agilent 6843A units)

Change page

If applicable, change sheets may be included with this guide. If there are change sheets,
make the indicated corrections in this guide.

Cleaning

Use a dry cloth or one slightly dampened with water to clean the external case parts. Do not attempt to
clean internally.

WARNING:

 To prevent electric shock, unplug the unit before cleaning.
