Operating Information
This chapter covers installation information and basic operation instructions.
Installation
The basic operating software is already installed on the hard disk. Refer to
Software Installation on page 2--6 for instructions on reinstalling the software.
CAUTION. Be sure you have an emergency startup disk. You will need this disk if
you ever have to reinstall the Windows operating system. Refer to Create an
Emergency Startup Disk on page 2--5.
Verify that all parts and accessories for the oscilloscope are available. Use the
graphical packing list that came with the oscilloscope to determine the necessary
parts and accessories. You should also verify that the following items are
available:
H the correct power cords
H the product--software CD set that includes installation copies of the software
installed on the oscilloscope
H all the accessories necessary to operate the oscilloscope
The oscilloscope is designed to operate on a bench or on a cart in the normal
position (on the bottom feet). For proper cooling, at least three inches (7.62 cm)
of clearance is required on both sides of the oscilloscope, and the bottom
requires the clearance provided by the oscilloscope feet.
If you operate the oscilloscope while it is resting on the rear feet, make sure that
you properly route any cables coming out of the rear of the oscilloscope to avoid
damaging them.
CAUTION. Keep the bottom and sides of the oscilloscope clear of obstructions to
ensure proper cooling.
Tables 1--8 and 1--10 on pages 1--18 and 1--20 list the operating requirements for
the oscilloscope. Power source, temperature, humidity, and altitude are listed.
