Installation
Before installation, refer to the Safety Summary section at the front of this
manual for power source, grounding, and other safety information.
Verify that you have the correct operating environment.
CAUTION. Damage to the instrument can occur if it is powered on at tempera-
tures outside the specified temperature range.
The AWG710 Arbitrary Waveform Generator operates correctly in ambient
temperatures from +10_ C to +40_ C (50_ F to +104_ F) and relative humidity
from 20% to 80% with no condensation. If the instrument is stored at tempera-
tures outside this range, do not switch on the power until the chassis is within the
operating temperature range. For detailed operating environment information,
refer to Specifications on page 1–3 and 1–14.
NOTE. If you are installing the instrument in a rack, refer to the instruction sheet
that accompanies the rack-mounting kit for proper installation procedures.
Verify that there is nothing blocking the flow of air at the fan and air intake
holes. The instrument exhausts air using the internal fan. Create open space at the
sides of the instrument so that it does not overheat. The following are the
minimum space requirements for air flow around the instrument:
Rear 7.5 cm (3 in)
Left and right 15.0 cm (6 in)
Top and bottom 2 cm (0.8 in)
(The feet on the bottom of the instrument provide the required clearance
when set on a flat surface.)
