Installation and Setup
Turning on the Analyzer for the First Time
Turning on the Analyzer for the First Time
❏ Plug in the power cord.
WARNING If this product is to be energized via an external auto transformer for voltage
reduction, make sure that its common terminal is connected to a neutral
(earthed pole) of the power supply.
CAUTION The analyzer is shipped with a a transportation disk inserted in the disk drive to
prevent damage to the disk drive during transportation. This transportation disk, or
a blank floppy disk, should be inserted in the disk drive whenever transporting the
analyzer.
NOTE Do not connect anything else to the analyzer yet.
❏ Choose a power on preference using the switch on the rear panel (refer to “Rear-Panel Features” on
page 31, item 14). The
PWR ALWAYS ON setting turns the analyzer on whenever external power
is applied. This mode is useful if an external power switch is used to control a rack of several
instruments. Nevertheless, if you set the analyzer to standby using the front panel
Standby key and
the external power is removed and restored within 20 seconds, the analyzer will remain in standby.
The
PWR NORM setting assigns analyzer on/off control to the front-panel On and Standby keys
(see “Front-Panel Connectors and Keys” on page 24, item 23). If the analyzer is on and the
external power is removed and restored within 20 seconds, the analyzer will turn on. On the other
hand, if the external power is removed and restored after 20 seconds, the analyzer will remain in
standby regardless of the front-panel switch settings.
❏ Press the (On) key to turn the analyzer on.
Information Screen: An information screen appears during the initialization process. The information
screen contains the analyzer product number and a URL for accessing product support information on
the World Wide Web. See “Additional Information” on page 2.
NOTE The information screen displays for approximately 10 seconds before the
initialization process is complete.
Record the firmware revision and serial number, and keep it for reference. If you
should ever need to call Agilent Technologies for service or with any questions
regarding your analyzer, it will be helpful to have this information readily
available. You can also obtain the firmware revision and serial number by pressing
System, More, Show System.
❏ Allow the analyzer to warm-up for 5 minutes before making a calibrated measurement. To meet its
specifications, the analyzer must meet operating temperature conditions.
