p/n 5964-8170
Applies to units with serial numbers US39290101 and up.
Foreword
This addendum contains information for troubleshooting and repairing the Agilent E4356A
Telecommunications DC Power Supply. The standard service manual for the Agilent Series 667xA DC
Power Supplies (p/n 5959-2583) used together with this service addendum is shipped with the Agilent
E4356A when ordered with Option 0BN.
NOTE:This addendum is to be used along with the standard service manual for the Agilent
Series 667xA DC Power Supplies. When troubleshooting, follow the procedures outlined
for Agilent Model 6674A. This addendum documents only the differences between the
standard troubleshooting procedures for Agilent Model 6674A and the Agilent E4356A
Telecommunications DC Power Supply.
