Installing the Signal Generator
This section contains procedures for properly installing your signal generator:
• checking the shipment
• installing front handles and rack flange kits
• meeting electrical and environmental requirements
• adjusting the display
• selecting the signal generator’s GPIB address
• selecting the programming language
Checking the Shipment
1. Inspect the shipping container for damage.
Look for signs of damage such as a dented or torn shipping container, or cushioning
material that shows signs of unusual stress or compacting.
2. Carefully remove the contents from the shipping container and verify that your order is
complete. A power cord and a documentation set are shipped standard with your signal
generator. Verify that you have received any options that you ordered.
Installing Front Handles and Rack Mount Flanges
You can attach handles to the front of the signal generator to facilitate transportation of
the instrument. Handles are available in a kit which can be ordered when the signal
generator is purchased (Option 1CN), or at any time afterward. Assembly instructions are
included with the kit. The kit part number is listed in Table 1-1.
You can also rack mount the signal generator. Hardware is available in kits to install rack
mount flanges on the signal generator without or with handles. These kits can be ordered
when the signal generator is purchased (Options 1CM and 1CP), or at any time afterward.
Assembly instructions are included with the kits. The kit part numbers are listed in
Table 1-1.
