the instrument from all voltage sources while it is

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.

For continued protection against re hazard, replace fuse only with

same type and ratings, (type nA/nV). The use of other fuses or materials

is prohibited.

W

ARNING

Before this instrument is switched on, make sure it has been properly

grounded through the protective conductor of the ac power cable to a

socket outlet provided with protective earth contact.

Any interruption of the protective (grounding) conductor, inside

or outside the instrument, or disconnection of the protective earth

terminal can result in personal injury.

Before this instrument is switched on, make sure its primary power

circuitry has been adapted to the voltage of the ac power source.

Failure to set the ac power input to the correct voltage could cause

damage to the instrument when the ac power cable is plugged in.

The MSIB cables are connected serially, coupling the input of one element to the output of

the next until the loop is completed.

To set the MSIB and HP-IB address switches:

1. Locate the address switches on the rear panel of the display.

2. Set the ve switches labeled COLUMN to the binary value of the display's MSIB column

address.

Setting the COLUMN address of the display, species both the MSIB address and the HP-IB

RAM Memory Card

Memory cards provide storage media and access routines and instrument personalities; these

Improper card insertion can cause error messages to occur, but generally does not

damage the card or instrument. Care must be taken, however, not to force the card

into the card reader slot.

Conrm that the line-voltage selector is set to the proper ac line voltage.

Failure to set the ac power input to the correct voltage could cause one of two things to

happen when power is applied:

If the switch is set to 115 V and the instrument is connected to 230 V, the fuse will blow.

If the switch is set to 230 V and the instrument is connected to 115 V, the instrument will

not turn on.

WARNING

Before turning this instrument on, make sure the line-voltage selector is set to the

voltage of the ac power source.

115 V position for 90 to 132 Vac line input voltages at 50, 60, or 400 Hz

230 V position for 198 to 264 Vac line input voltages at 50 or 60 Hz

Also make sure that it is grounded through the protective conductor of the ac power cable to

a socket outlet provided with protective earth contact. Any interruption of the protective

(grounding) conductor inside or outside the instrument, or disconnection of the protective

earth terminal, can result in personal injury.

The Condence Test checks the operation of roughly 90% of the HP 70004A color display.

If the HP 70004A color display fails the Condence Test, it attempts to write anE(error) in

the system state area of the display.

If the display passes the Condence Test, and the display screen shows no visible

distortion, there is a high level of probability that the display is functioning correctly.

If a fault is found,

6008 Confidence test failed

is displayed. In this event, refer to \If

You Need to Run Display Tests" in Chapter 2 for additional information, or contact your

nearest Hewlett-Packard Sales and Service Oce. (Refer to Table 2-2.)

At power-on, a set of tests that is dierent from the Condence Test is run. The set of

tests run at power-on includes tests for the MSIB capability of the display. The display

indicates whether any of these tests fail, but does not indicate if they pass
