Initial Inspection

Preparing for Use

1.Unpack and inspect the shipping container and its contents thoroughly to ensure that nothing was damaged during shipment. If the shipping container or cushioning material is damaged, the contents should be checked both mechanically and electrically. A procedure for checking the electrical performance is given in Chapter 4, Verification.

❍If the shipping container is damaged, or the cushioning material shows signs of stress, notify the carrier as well as Agilent Technologies. Keep the shipping material for the carrier’s inspection. Refer to Figure 1-3.

❍If the contents are damaged or defective, contact your nearest Service Center listed under “Service and Support” on page v. Agilent will arrange for repair or replacement of the damaged or defective equipment.

2.Use the following properties of the attenuator/switch driver to plan your system configuration.

Power requirements

The internal power supply adjusts automatically to the input line voltage. See table 3-2 on page 3-3for additional information.

Power cord

In accordance with international safety standards, a three-wire power cable is provided with this instrument. When it is connected to an appropriate ac power receptacle, this cable grounds the instrument cabinet. The type of power cable plug shipped with each instrument depends on the country of destination.

Fuses

The 87130A is shipped with a 3A fuse (F3) installed in the + 24 Vdc line and a 3A fuse (F2) in the + 5 Vdc line. The 1 A, 250 V power line fuse is located inside the AC input module.
