Figure 2. AIC 5000 Instrument and SS420x Connections
Plug the SS420x power supply into an appropriate electrical outlet.
Connect the power cord from the power supply into the receptacle
on the rear of the SS420x.
The red power LED should light. The four (4) green channel
indicator LEDs sequentially light up during the power-up test. When
the test is complete, the green LEDs will go off and the interface is
ready to use. If this sequence does not successfully complete, the
SS420x must be powered off and then on again.
Connect the Instruments
Connect the instruments you will be using with the Agilent
Instrument Controller. If you are using a digital instrument, connect
it to the Agilent Instrument Controller using the appropriate
connector on the back of the Agilent Instrument Controller (see
Figure 2). If your AIC 5000 includes an optional RS-232, SCSI, or
GPIB interface card, it is installed in the upper PCI slot. The network
interface card is installed in the lower PCI slot.
Note
If you are using a SCSI instrument, it must be
powered ON prior to connecting it to the Agilent
Instrument Controller.
