Installation
Introduction This chapter provides information to install the E1411 multimeter, including
initial inspection, preparation for use, environment, storage and shipment.
Initial
Inspection
Inspect the shipping container for damage. If the shipping container or
cushioning material is damaged, keep the container until the shipment
contents have been checked and the instrument has been checked
mechanically and electrically. See Figure 1-1 in Chapter 1 - General
Information for shipment contents. See Chapter 4 - Verification Tests for
procedures to check electrical performance.
WARNING
To avoid possible hazardous electrical shock, do not perform
electrical tests if there are signs of shipping damage to any
portion of the outer enclosure (covers, panels, etc.).
If the contents are incomplete, if there is mechanical damage or defect, or if
the instrument does not pass the electrical performance tests, notify your
nearest Agilent Technologies Sales and Support Office. If the shipping
container is damaged or the cushioning material shows signs of stress,
notify the carrier as well as Agilent Technologies, and keep the shipping
materials for the carrier’s inspection.
Preparation
for Use
See Chapter 2 of the E1326A/E1411A User’s Manual or the
E1326B/E1411B User’s Manual to prepare an E1411 multimeter for use.
See the appropriate mainframe user’s manual(s) to prepare your mainframe.
If your mainframe is not manufactured by Agilent Technologies, consult
the manufacturer for a list of available manual(s).
Recommended operating environment for the E1411 multimeters is 0
