Operating Information
This chapter covers installation information and basic operation instructions.
Installation
The basic operating software is already installed on the hard disk. Refer to
Software Installation on page 2--5 for instructions on reinstalling the software.
Verify that all parts and accessories for the instrument are available. Use the
graphical packing list that came with the oscilloscope to determine the necessary
parts and accessories. You should also verify that the following items are
available:
H The correct power cords
H The product-software CD set that includes installation copies of the software
installed on the instrument
H All the accessories necessary to operate the instrument
The instrument is designed to operate on a bench or on a cart in the normal
position (on the bottom feet). For proper cooling, at least three inches (7.62 cm)
of clearance is required on both sides of the instrument, and the bottom requires
the clearance provided by the instrument feet.
If you operate the instrument while it is resting on the rear feet, make sure that
you properly route any cables coming out of the rear of the instrument to avoid
damaging them.
CAUTION. Keep the bottom and sides of the instrument clear of obstructions to
ensure proper cooling.
Tables 1--10 and 1--12 on pages 1--25 and 1--27 list the operating requirements
for the instrument. Power source, temperature, humidity, and altitude are listed.
The peripheral connections are the same as those you would make on a personal
computer. The connection points are shown in Figure 2--1 on page 2--3. See
Table 2--1 for additional connection information.
