Agilent Technologies E2251A user manual Determine M-Module Layout

Step 2. Determine M-Module Layout

1.Identify the positions your M-Modules will occupy in the E2251A Carrier. The Carrier can hold up to six M-Modules only if neither of the modules in the two interior slots (M4 & M5) require external cabling. If one or both interior modules require external cabling, the bottom-front slot (M0) must be left unused to accommodate the wiring; strain relief clamps are provided. The following figure shows the common M-Module layouts.

CAUTION: Modules in Carrier slot M5 are restricted to 60Vdc, 30Vacrms, or 42Vacpk.
