Finding Other Information

Modules

Throughout this manual, any replaceable component, assembly, or part of the AWG2005 is referred to generically as a module. In general, a module is an assembly (like a circuit board), rather than a component (like a resistor or an integrated circuit). Sometimes a single component is a module; for example, the chassis of the AWG2005 is a module.

Safety

Symbols and terms related to safety appear in the Safety Summary near the beginning of this manual.
