Inspection
The SourceMeter was carefully inspected electrically and mechanically before
shipment. After unpacking all items from the shipping carton, check for any obvi-
ous signs of physical damage that may have occurred during transit. (There may
be a protective film over the display lens, which can be removed.) Report any
damage to the shipping agent immediately. Save the original packing carton for
possible future shipment. The following items are included with every SourceMe-
ter order:
• SourceMeter with line cord.
• Test leads (Model 8605 for 2400, 2400-C; Model 1754 for all other series
2400 units).
• Accessories as ordered.
• Certificate of calibration.
• User’s Manual.
• Service Manual.
• Support Software Disk including TestPoint instrument library for GPIB and
LabVIEW for Windows driver.
• Manual addenda containing any improvements or changes to the instru-
ment or manual.
If an additional manual is required, order the appropriate manual package (for
example, 2400-901-00). The manual packages include a manual and any perti-
nent addenda.
