WARNING

!Initial visual inspection

After unpacking the equipment, inspect the shipping container and its cushioning material for signs of stress or damage. If damage is identified, retain the packing material for examination by the carrier in the event that a claim is made. Examine the equipment for signs of damage; do not connect the equipment to a supply when damage is present, internal electrical damage could result in shock if the equipment is turned on.

Setting logical address

Before installing the signal generator in the VXI mainframe, verify that the logical address is between 1 and 254 and does not clash with the logical address of any other device in the rack. The logical address is set on a bank of 8 DIL switches. These are located on the right-hand side of the instrument. Use some form of stylus (e.g. a ball-point pen) to move the switches to form the binary address. Logical addresses may be set in the range 1 to 254. Logical address 0 is reserved for slot 0 devices and logical address 255 is reserved for dynamically configured devices. The 3002 VXI Signal Generator does not support dynamic configuration.

Ventilation requirements

Ensure that the VXI signal generator module is supplied with adequate cooling i.e. 2.4 liter/s at 1 mm H2O backpressure minimum per slot.
