INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

2.4HANDLE ADJUSTMENT AND OPERATING POSITIONS OF THE INSTRUMENT

By pulling both handle ends outwards away from the instrument, the handle can be rotated to allow the following instrument positions:

-vertical position on its rear feet;

-horizontal position on its bottom feet;

-in three sloping positions on its handle.

The characteristics mentioned in the REFERENCE MANUAL are guaranteed for the specified positions or when the handle is folded down.

CAUTION: To avoid overheating, ensure that the ventilation holes in the covers are free of obstruction. Do not position the instrument in direct sunlight or on any surface that produces or radiates heat.

In the rear panel of the instrument there is storage space for the mains cable. There is also a clamping device to fix the end of the mains cable to the rear panel. The mains plug then fits in the area where the RS232 connector is present. In this way the instrument can also stand on its rear feet.

2.5 IEEE 488.2/IEC 625 BUS INTERFACE OPTION

If your oscilloscope is equipped with the IEEE 488.2 interface, it can be used in a bus system configuration. The protocol used is SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments). For setup information, refer to the function REMOTE CONTROL IEEE 488.2 in Chapter 5.

The IEEE 488.2 interface is a factory-installed option.
