WARNING
Initial visual inspection
After unpacking the instrument, inspect the shipping container and its cushioning material for
signs of stress or damage. If there is damage, retain the packing material for examination by the
carrier in the event that a claim is made. Examine the instrument for signs of damage; do not
connect the instrument to a supply when damage is present, as internal electrical damage could
result in a shock if the instrument is turned on.
Positioning arrangements
Excessive temperatures may affect the performance of the instrument. Completely remove the
plastic cover, if one is supplied over the case, and avoid standing the instrument on or close to
other equipment that is hot.
Stability
If you stand the instrument on end on its rear-panel protectors, make sure that you provide support
to prevent it from toppling over.
Installation requirements
Ventilation
This instrument is forced-air-cooled by two fans mounted on the rear panel. Air must be allowed
to circulate freely through the ventilator grilles located on the sides of the instrument. Before
switching on the instrument, ensure that the fan outlets on the rear panel are not restricted (leave a
clearance of at least 75 mm (3 in) at the rear and 25 mm (1 in) at each side). Failing to provide
adequate clearances will increase internal temperatures and may adversely affect the instrument’s
performance.
The fan speed is regulated and varies depending on the air temperature inside the case.
