Introduction
This chapter provides the information required to
reconfigure the power subsystem of an Agilent 3070
Series 3 or 79000 which was shipped prior to June 1999
to have the same power requirements as 3070 / 79000
systems shipped after June 1999. This does not apply to
3070 Series I/II systems.
NOTE
This current reduction conversion procedure is
NOT a warranty cost item. MTD does not
recognize it as a problem, but it does offer the
opportunity for the customer to reduce their
current consumption, and the size of their service
mains.
NOTE
The current reduction conversion uses the existing
hardware. It does not have a product number.
For the serial numbers shown for each system type in
Table 11-1, several changes were made which
significantly reduced the current requirements. Several
power options were also changed. See
Facts about
PDUs, MPUs and Power Options on page 6-41 for a
list of important changes concerning PDUs, MPUs and
power options which have occurred with 3070 Series 3 /
79000 products.
