as described in Agilent
41000 Preinstallation Guide.
2. Connect the Agilent 41000 power cable to the power receptacle. The power cable will
come from the bottom rear side of the Agilent 41000 system cabinet. It will be
connected to the rear panel of the power distribution unit (PDU).
3. This is only for the Agilent 41000 with the measurement controller option.
Connect the AC adapter to the measurement controller (Windows note PC) and connect
the power cable to the AC adapter. And then connect the power cable to your site
power line/receptacle directly.
NOTE Note PC’s power cable
Power cable of the note PC AC adapter does not meet to the controller outlets on the PDU.
NOTE If your Agilent 41000 do not have PDU option
Connect power cables for instruments and computer/controller to your site power line
directly.
To Connect GPIB Cable
If you use the Agilent 82357A USB/GPIB interface.
1. Install the Agilent VISA and SICL I/O libraries to your computer (controller). The
I/O libraries are furnished with the Agilent 82357A. This step is not needed for the
Agilent 41000 with the controller option, it has been installed in the computer.
