The instructions in this document are for use by qualied personnel

only.To avoid electrical shock, do not perform any servicing unless you

are qualied to do so.

The opening of covers or removal of parts is likely to expose dangerous

voltages. Disconnect the instrument from all voltage sources while it is

being opened.

The power cord is connected to internal capacitors that may remain live

for ve seconds after disconnecting the plug from its power supply.

This is a Safety Class 1 Product (provided with a protective earthing

ground incorporated in the power cord). The mains plug shall only be

inserted in a socket outlet provided with a protective earth contact.

Any interruption of the protective conductor inside or outside of the

instrument is likely to make the instrument dangerous. Intentional

interruption is prohibited.

Mainframe Description

A mainframe is a device into which plug-in modules may be installed to create an instrument

in the modular measurement system. The HP 70001A mainframe provides the structural

environment for plug-in instrument modules along with cooling, power, and digital

communication interface buses.

It can accommodate 1/8-, 1/4-, 3/8-, and 1/2-width modules, and has a maximum capacity of

eight 1/8-width modules.

Standard rack compatibility is provided, and bench-top use is facilitated with integral bails and

retracting handles.

The Hewlett-Packard Modular System Interface Bus (MSIB) supports high-speed digital

communication among instrument modules within a mainframe and among instruments

connected to the external MSIB loop.

Every module in a mainframe has access to the standard Hewlett-Packard Interface Bus

(HP-IB). This bus provides a path of communication among controllers, other HP-IB instruments

and individual modules.

The ac power input is switchable between several ranges.
