Preparation for Use
This subsection describes how to prepare the AWG2005 Arbitrary Waveform
Generator for use. The information describes these items:
H Proper operating environment
H Checking power cord and line voltage configurations
H Checking the fuse
H PowerĆon and powerĆoff cycles
To ensure proper AWG2005 operation and long life, note these environmenĆ
tal requirements.
Operating Temperature
The AWG2005 operates in an environment with an ambient air temperature
between +10_ĂC and +40_ĂC. The AWG2005 storage temperature ranges
from -20_ĂC to +60_ĂC. After storage at temperatures outside the operating
limits, allow the AWG2005 chassis to stabilize at a safe operating temperaĆ
ture before applying power.
Ventilation Requirements
Air drawn in and exhausted through the cabinet side and bottom panels
cools AWG2005 internal circuits. To ensure proper cooling, allow the followĆ
ing clearances:
Top and back 7.6Ăcm (3 in.)
Left and right 15Ăcm (6 in.)
The feet on the bottom of the AWG2005 cabinet provide the required clearĆ
ance when it is set on a flat surface. The top of the AWG2005 does not
require ventilation clearance.
CAUTION
To prevent temporary shutdown of the AWG2005, do not restrict air
flow through the chassis. If the AWG2005 shuts down unexpectedly,
improve ventilation around the AWG2005 and wait a few minutes to
allow it to cool down; then switch the power on again.
