Appendix A 

AC Supply Voltage Settings

Introduction 

Before use, check that the instrument operating voltage marked on the rear panel is 

suitable for the local supply.  

Warning 

To avoid the possibility of electric shock, always ensure the 
instrument is disconnected from the ac supply before opening 
the case. 

Should it be necessary to change the operating voltage, proceed as follows: 
1.  Disconnect the instrument from all voltage sources. 
2.  Remove the screws which retain the top cover and lift off the cover. 
3.  Change the transformer connections as follows: 

 

for 230V operation connect the live (brown) wire to pin 15 

 

for 115V operation connect the live (brown) wire to pin 14 

 

for 100V operation connect the live (brown) wire to pin 13 

4.  Refit the cover and the secure with the same screws. 
5.  Change the fuse to one of the correct rating, see below. 

Caution 

To comply with safety standard requirements the operating 
voltage marked on the rear panel must be changed to clearly 
show the new voltage setting.
