Getting Started; Before Initializing And Operating The Unit; Initial Inspection - JDS Uniphase TB9 Series User Manual

Getting Started

The TB9 Series Optical Grating Filter consists of the filter unit, an AC power cord, a user's
manual, the test report and a warranty card.

Before Initializing and Operating the Unit

Inspect the unit for any signs of damage.
Read the user's manual thoroughly, and become familiar with all safety symbols and
instructions to ensure that the unit is operated and maintained safely.

Initial Inspection

Warning
To avoid electrical shock, do not initialize or operate the unit if it bears any sign
of damage to any portion of its exterior surface, such as the outer cover or
panels.
Check that the unit and contents are complete:
1. Wear an anti-static wrist strap, and work in an electrostatic discharge (ESD) controlled
area.
2. Inspect the shipping container for any indication of excessive shock to the contents, and
inspect the contents to ensure that the shipment is complete.
3. Inspect the unit for structural damage that can have occurred during shipping.
4. Connect the unit to a power source, using the AC power cord provided.
5. Set the power switch to I (on) and observe the power-up sequence. The key lamps and
status LEDs will illuminate. The version of the software is displayed briefly followed by
"TB9(CRLF) AD". CRLF is the message terminating sequence <CR> <LF>, AD is the
GPIB address (a number between 1 and 32). After the power-up sequence is complete the
instrument will display the wavelength that corresponds with start of the tuning range (1460
or 1525 depending on the model). If a malfunction is detected during power-up, an error
message is displayed.
6. Allow the instrument to stabilize for two hours before use.
7. Keep the packaging.
Immediately inform JDS Uniphase and, if necessary, the carrier if the contents of the shipment
are incomplete, if the unit or any of its components are damaged or defective, or if the unit
does not pass the initial inspection.
