General Information
Introduction
This guide describes how to install, check out, operate, and calibrate the Agilent Series 661xxA power modules used in the Agilent 66000 Modular Power System. Programming the power module from the optional Agilent 66001A Keyboard is described in Appendix B of this guide. Programming the power module over the GPIB bus is covered in the module Programming Guide (see "Related Documents", below). Setting the GPIB address is described in the mainframe Installation Guide. For complete verification procedures, see the module Service Guide (listed under "Related Documents", below). The Agilent 66000A Modular Power System Product Note has specific application programs in several DOS- compatible languages and GPIB interface drivers.

Safety Considerations
When properly installed in the mainframe, the power module is part of a subsystem that constitutes a Safety Class 1 instrument. The power module has a protective earth connection that is completed through a contact spring in the mainframe backplane. When the power module is moved in and out of the mainframe, the earth ground connection is made before ac power is connected and is removed after ac power is disconnected.
