General Information

General Information

Welcome to the HP E-series E9300 power sensors Operating and Service Guide! This guide contains information about the initial inspection, operation, specifications and repair of the HP E-series E9300 power sensors. Use this guide as a supplement to the Agilent EPM series power meters User’s Guides. It is 3-hole drilled to allow you to retain it in the power meter’s binder.

All power meter functions are detailed in the Agilent EPM series power meters User’s Guide and Programming Guide, however, this guide contains information specific to the operation of Agilent E-series E9300 power sensor.

Power Meter Requirements

The HP E-series E9300 power sensors are NOT compatible with the earlier HP 430-Series, HP E1416A, or HP 70100A power meters. They are compatible ONLY with the Agilent EPM series power meters. Also, not all Agilent EPM series power meters are immediately compatible - your power meter must use firmware and Digital Signal Processing (DSP) code from a specific release onwards. see Checking Power Meter Firmware and DSP Revision on page 16 tells you how to check your power meter and have it upgraded if required.
