instrument suitable for use with redundant power supplies.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
K Ensure that the unit is isolated from supply voltage for at least 15 minutes before starting to work on it. This will

K STATIC ELECTRICITY
K CAUTION
These procedures involve the handling of components which are susceptible to damage caused by
the discharge of static electricity. All relevant personnel must be aware of static handling proce-
