Operating Basics
This chapter makes you familiar with the operation of your sampling module. It
describes the front-panel controls and connectors, interaction of the sampling
module with your main instrument, programming the sampling module, and user
adjustments.
Usage
Figure 5 shows the front panel of the sampling module and identifies the buttons,
lights and connectors.
CAUTION. To prevent damage to your sampling module or instrument, do not
apply a voltage outside the Maximum Input Voltage (see page 48) for your
sampling module.
To pr event electr ostatic damage to the instrument and sampling modules, follow
the precautions described in this manual and the manuals accompanying your
instrument. (See Electrostatic Discharge starting on page 6.)
Always use a wrist strap (provided with your instrument) when handling
sampling modules or making signal connections.
The input circuitry in your sampling module is very susceptible to damage from
overdrive signals and electrostatic discharge. Never apply a DC or peak voltage
greater than the Maximum Input Voltage (see page 48) of your sampling module.
Only operate the instrument and sampling module in a static-controlled
environment.
