IDENTIFICATION
1-13. Information in this manual applies directly to
Model 141A instruments with
serial
prefix
of 547-.
The
serial
prefix
is
the first
3
digits of the eight digit
serial
number
(O~-OOOOO)
used to identify each
Hewlett-Packard instrument.
If
the
serial
prefix
Of
a
Model 141A
is
not 547-,
a
change sheet suppliedwith
the manual will define the difference between that
Model 141A
Model 141A and the one described in this manual, or
a
different manual may provide the information.
Corrections to this manual due
to
any errors which
existedwhen this manual was printed
are
calledErrata
and appear only on the change sheet supplied. For in-
formation pertaining to change sheets, contact the
nearest Hewlett- Packard Sales/Service Office.
