To keep users safe, always read and follow all safety
warnings provided with each of the instruments in your
system.
Connect
• Make sure all connections are behind a locked cabinet
door or other barrier. This protects the system operator
from accidentally removing a connection by hand and
exposing hazardous voltages. Use high-reliability, fail-
safe interlock switches to disconnect power sources
when a test xture cover is opened.
• Where possible, use automatic handlers so operators
are not required to access the DUT or other potentially
hazardous areas.
• Provide training to all users of the system so they
understand all potential hazards and know how to protect
themselves from injury.
• During power up in many systems, the outputs may be in
an unknown state until they are properly initialized. Make
sure the design can tolerate this situation without causing
operator injury or hardware damage.
