The oscilloscope can be identified by the product number (54853A, 54854A, or 54855A) on
the back panel.
On the rear panel of the instrument is a serial number label and a VIN # XXX. The serial number
is composed of two parts. The first part contains two letters and two numbers that signify the
instrument’s county of origin and year date code. The second part, or the last six digits from the
right, contains a rolling number that is different for each Infiniium. This manual applies to “B”
model Infiniinums at release date. This manual may not reflect changes made to the oscilloscope
after the release data listed on the title page.
An oscilloscope manufactured after the printing of this manual may have a newer serial number.
This newer serial prefix indicates that the oscilloscope may be different from those described in
