Preparing For Use
This section gives you instructions for preparing the pattern generator
module for use.
Power Requirements
All power supplies required for operating the pattern generator are
supplied through the backplane connector in the mainframe.
Operating Environment
The pattern generator module's reliability is enhanced when operating
the module within the following ranges:
•
Temperature: +20 °C to +35 °C (+68 °F to +95 °F)
•
Humidity: 20% to 80% noncondensing
Storage
Store or ship the pattern generator in environments within the
following limits:
•
Temperature: −40 °C to + 75 °C
•
Humidity: Up to 90% at 65 °C
•
Altitude: Up to 15,300 meters (50,000 feet)
Protect the module from temperature extremes which cause
condensation on the instrument.
