All of the externally mounted connectors on the instrument are discussed in the “Operating and Programming Reference” chapter, under “Connectors.” If you are interested in the HP part number for a connector, see “Replaceable Parts” in this manual set.

To keep the internal timebase frequency reference oven at operating temperature, the synthesizer must be connected to ac line power. The synthesizer requires approximately 30 minutes to warm up from a cold start before the OVEN display message goes off. With

a stable outside temperature, internal temperature equilibrium is reached after approximately two hours. For additional information on warmup times, see “Specifications,” in this volume.
