Returning a Product for Service or Repair
If you need to return a LeCroy product, identify it by its model and serial numbers. Describe the defect or failure,
and give us your name and telephone number.
For factory returns, use a Return Authorization Number (RAN), which you can get from customer service. Write
the number clearly on the outside of the shipping carton.
12 W RXi-OM-E Rev C
OPERATOR’S MANUAL
Return products requiring only maintenance to your local customer service center.
If you need to return your oscilloscope for any reason, use the original shipping carton. If this is not possible, be
sure to use a rigid carton. The oscilloscope should be packed so that it is surrounded by a minimum of four inches
(10 cm) of shock absorbent material.
Within the warranty period, transportation charges to the factory will be your responsibility. Products under
warranty will be returned to you with transport prepaid by LeCroy. Outside the warranty period, you will have to
provide us with a purchase order number before the work can be done. You will be billed for parts and labor
related to the repair work, as well as for shipping.
You should prepay return shipments. LeCroy cannot accept COD (Cash On Delivery) or Collect Return
shipments. We recommend using air freight.
Technical Support
You can get assistance with installation, calibration, and a full range of software applications from your customer
service center. Visit the LeCroy Web site at http://www.lecroy.com for the center nearest you.
Staying Up-to-Date
To maintain your instrument’s performance within specifications, have us calibrate it at least once a year. LeCroy
offers state-of-the-art performance by continually refining and improving the instrument’s capabilities and
operation. We frequently update both firmware and software during service, free of charge during wa rranty.
You can also install new purchased software options in your oscilloscope yourself, without having to return it to
the factory. Simply provide us with your instrument serial number and ID, and the version number of instrument
software installed. We will provide you with a unique option key that consists of a code to be entered through the
Utilities' Options dialog to load the software option.

Occasionally a temporary conductivity caused by
condensation must be expected.
• Protection Class 1 refers to a grounded equipment, in
which protection against electric shock is achieved by
Basic Insulation and by means of a connection to the
protective ground conductor in the building wiring.
Cooling Requirements
The instrument relies on forced air cooling with internal fans and
ventilation openings. Care must be taken to avoid restricting the
airflow around the apertures (fan holes) at the sides, front, and
rear of the DSO. To ensure adequate ventilation it is required to
leave a 15 cm (6 inch) minimum gap around the sides, front,
and rear of the instrument.
CAUTION
Do not exceed the maximum specified front
panel terminal (CH1, CH2, CH3, CH4, EXT)
voltage levels. Refer to Specifications for more
details.
