1.8.6 Faults and damage
If it is considered that the instrument can no longer operate safely, it should be taken
out of service, labelled with the fault condition and secured against unintentional use.
The following are situations where this may be the case:
• if the instrument shows visible signs of damage
• if the instrument no longer operates correctly
• if the instrument has been subjected to any stresses (such as storage and
transport) where the permitted range limits were exceeded.
If the rechargeable battery pack develops a fault it can be replaced locally in an
appropriately equipped workshop. See Section 7.6.2, Replacing the ANT-5 battery
pack, for further details.
With the exception of the battery pack, there are no user serviceable parts in the
ANT-5 or its accessories. Do not attempt to open the case of the instrument – any
attempt to do so will invalidate the warranty.
If maintenance or repair of the instrument is required, contact the nearest Acterna
Sales Office or Technical Assistance Centre. For locality information visit our web site,
www.acterna.com, or contact the nearest Regional Sales Office as listed on the back
of the manual.
Refer to Section 8, Customer support for further details.
1.8.7 General cleaning
The outer surfaces and bumpers of the ANT-5 may be cleaned with a cloth slightly
dampened with water or a mild detergent. Abrasives and solvents must not be used,
as they will damage the finish and may remove the labelling.
Switch off and disconnect all cables before cleaning and do not allow water or any
other substance to enter the instrument through the keyboard, connectors or card slot
locations.
1.9 Power supplies
The ANT-5 is supplied with a built-in NiMH rechargeable battery, a PPS external
power supply and a mains cable. The power supply is connected to the ANT-5 via an
integral cable and jack socket.
The external power supply acts as a charger unit when the instrument is switched off.
When external power is connected, the battery LED, , above the screen will be
green. See Section 2.5, LED and on-screen indicators, for further details.
