WARNING  The following information is intended for qualified service 
personnel. Do not make connections unless qualified to do so. To 
prevent electric shock that could result in serious injury or death, 
observe the following safety precautions: 
•  Before removing or installing a card in the mainframe, make 
sure the mainframe is turned off and disconnected from line 
power. 
•  Before making or breaking connections, make sure power is 
removed from all external circuitry. 
•  Do not connect signals that may exceed the maximum 
specifications of the model or external wiring. Complete 
specifications for each card are included on the documentation 
that came with the card. Please check the Keithley Instruments 
website at 
0www.keithley.com for the latest updates to the 
specifications. 
•  All wiring must be rated for the maximum voltage in the 
system. For example, if 300 V is applied to the backplane 
connector, all card wiring must be rated for 300 V.
