Provide training to all users of the system so they understand all
potential hazards and know how to protect themselves from
injury.
In many systems, during power up, the outputs may be in an
unknown state until they are properly initialized. Make sure the
design can tolerate this situation without causing operator injury
or hardware damage.
To keep users safe, always read and follow all safety warnings
provided with each of the instruments in your system.
Install the instrument
You can use the 2281S on a bench or in a rack. Please see the
instructions that came with your rack-mount kit if you are installing
the 2281S in a rack.
To prevent damaging heat build-up and ensure specified
performance, make sure there is adequate ventilation and air flow
around the instrument to ensure proper cooling. Do not cover the
ventilation holes on the top, sides, or bottom of the instrument.
Make sure the instrument is positioned so that it is easy to reach any
disconnecting devices, such as the power cord and the power switch.
Power up the instrument
The 2281S operates at 100 V, 120 V, 220 V, or 240 V with a
frequency of 50 Hz or 60 Hz. Make sure that the AC line voltage
indicator in the center of the rear-panel power module matches the
AC line voltage in your facility. If it does not, refer to the
"Maintenance" section of the
Model 2281 Reference Manual
to change
the setting on the power entry module.
