Getting Started
Before connecting and powering up the instrument, please review and go through the
instructions in this chapter.
Input Power Requirements
Input Power
The instrument has a selectable AC input that accepts line voltage and frequency input
within:
AC Input: 100-120 VAC or 198-242 VAC
Frequency: 47 – 63 Hz
Before connecting to an AC outlet or external power source, be sure that the fuse is the
appropriate for the mains (refer to Fuse Requirements). Also, verify that the AC power cord,
including the extension line, is compatible with the rated voltage/current and that there is
sufficient circuit capacity for the power supply. Once verified, connect the cable firmly.
The included AC power cord is safety certified for this instrument operating in rated range.
To change a cable or add an extension cable, be sure that it can meet the required power
ratings for this instrument. Any misuse with wrong or unsafe cables will void the warranty.
Fuse Requirements
An AC input fuse is necessary when powering the instrument. The fuse is located at the
back of the instrument. In the event the fuse needs to be replaced, make sure the AC input
power cord is disconnected from the instrument before replacing. Refer to the table below
for the fuse requirements with either 115 VAC or 230 VAC.
Before replacing fuse, disconnect AC input power cord first to prevent electric shock.
Only use a fuse of the same rating as required. Using a different rated fuse will damage the
instrument.
