Agilent Technologies FieldFox N9912A User Manual page 181

Environmental Requirements
Refer to the Specifications section of this document.
Electrical Requirements
The FieldFox allows you to use either the lithium-ion battery or the AC/DC
adapter - both are included.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions
The FieldFox was constructed in an ESD protected environment. This is because
most of the semiconductor devices used in this instrument are susceptible to
damage by static discharge.
Static charges are generated in numerous ways, such as simple contact,
separation of materials, and normal motions of persons working with the
FieldFox. To prevent instrument damage, practice industry accepted techniques
for handling static sensitive devices when using the FieldFox.
Very often, coaxial cables and antennas also build up a static charge, which, if
allowed to discharge by connecting to the FieldFox, may damage the instrument
input circuitry. To avoid such damage, it is recommended to dissipate any static
charges by temporarily attaching a short to the cable or antenna prior to
attaching to the instrument.
FieldFox Markings
Safety Considerations
The CE mark shows that the product complies with all relevant European
legal Directives (if accompanied by a year, it signifies when the design
was proven).
The CSA mark is a registered trademark of CSA International.
The C-Tick mark is a registered trademark of the Australian Spectrum
Management Agency.
This is a marking to indicate product compliance with the Canadian
Interference-Causing Equipment Standard (ICES–001).
This symbol is an Industrial Scientific and Medical Group 1 Class A
product (CISPR 11, Clause 4)
The standby symbol is used to mark a position of the instrument power
line switch.
This symbol indicates separate collection for electrical and electronic
equipment, mandated under EU law as of August 13, 2005. All electric
and electronic equipment are required to be separated from normal
