•VTEX Switch Driver Programmer’s Manual
•VXI Technology, Inc. Drivers and Product Manuals CD
•Power line cord
All components should be immediately inspected for damage upon receipt of the unit.
INSTALLATION LOCATION
The EX7000 is designed to be largely insensitive to external electrical, magnetic, and thermal disturbances. However, as with all precision instrumentation, certain precautions, if taken into consideration, can help achieve maximum performance.
1)The unit should be located away from sources of extreme high or low temperatures.
2)The unit should be located away from sources of high magnetic fields such as motors, generators, and power transformers.
The EX71HD and EX72SF employ active cooling for maximum product reliability. The EX7400 may or may not employ such cooling, depending on the expected power consumption. When any of the EX7000 family of products is installed into a test fixture, the user must ensure that adequate air flow is provided to all components.
