Installation
The sampling modules fit into the front panel of the main instrument. Figure 3

compartments.

Figure 3: Sam pling module compar tments
At least one sampling module must be installed in an instrument to sample
signals.
NOTE. Installing a large module in the left-most slot disables the left-most small
module compartment. Installing a large module in the right-most slot disables
the small module compartment that is second from the left.
Each instrument supports four large-compartment channels, two per sampling
module, and eight small-compartment channels, two per sampling module. Eight
of the ten channels are usable at one time.
To prevent electrostatic damage to the main instrument and sampling modules,
follow the precautions described in this manual and the manuals that come with
your instrument.
Circuitry in the sampling module is very susceptible to damage from electrostat-
ic discharge or from overdrive signals. Be sure to only operate the sampling
module in a static-controlled environment. Be sure to discharge to ground any
electrostatic charge that may be present on the center and outer connectors of
cables before attaching the cable to the sampling module.
