Checking the Environment Requirements
Read this section before attempting any installation procedures. This section
describes site considerations, power requirements, and ground connections for
your instrument.
The instrument is designed to operate on a bench or on a cart in the normal
position (on the bottom feet). For proper cooling, at least three inches (7.62 cm)
of clearance is required on both sides of the instrument, and the bottom requires
the clearance provided by the instrument feet.
If you operate the instrument while it is resting on the rear feet, make sure that
you properly route any cables coming out of the rear of the instrument to avoid
damaging them.
CAUTION. To prevent damage to the instrument, keep the bottom and sides of the
instrument clear of obstructions for proper cooling.
The Specifications in Appendix A list the operating requirements for the
instrument. Power source, temperature, humidity, and altitude are listed.
Connecting Peripherals
The peripheral connections are the same as those you would make on a personal
computer. The connection points are shown in Figure 1--1. See Table 1--1 on
page 1--9 for additional connection information.
