ELAN Home Systems ES370 manual Stacking Do’s And Don’ts

2.3.5 Stacking Do’s And Don’ts

•Do power off all scopes (remove USB lead) before connecting and disconnecting scopes from the stack

•Don’t remove any scopes from the stack while the software is running

•Don’t remove any scopes from the stack while any of them are powered

•Don’t stack several scopes and leave one or more scopes un- stacked…this configuration will ignore the un-stacked scopes

•Don’t short circuit any of the stack connector pins, or bend the pins or use excessive force trying to mate the connectors

•Don’t probe or drive any of the stack connector signals

•Avoid touching the stack connector pins/signals during stacking

•Do make sure that each stack connector is properly seated in place before trying to stack another channel on top

•Don’t allow water or dirt etc to enter the scope via the stack connector access hole

•Do remember that scopes in the stack are NOT isolated from each other, they are only isolated from the USB ports. To re-iterate, stacked scopes have their BNC connector bodies connected together through the stack connector.
