5 Maintenance

This section presents procedures for maintaining SGX1000 series RF signal generators.

5.1 Safety

Although SGX1000 series RF signal generators have been designed in accordance with international
safety standards, general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation and
maintenance. Failure to comply with the precautions listed in the Safety Summary located in the front of
this manual could result in serious injury or death. Service and adjustments should be performed only by
qualified service personnel.

5.2 Cleaning

Painted surfaces can be cleaned with a commercial spray-type window cleaner or a mild detergent and
water solution.
Caution When cleaning the instrument, do not allow cleaning fluid to enter the fan intake and
exhaust vents. Avoid using chemical cleaning agents that can damage painted or plastic
surfaces.

5.3 Inspection

If SGX1000 series RF signal generators malfunction, perform a visual inspection of the instrument.
Inspect for signs of damage caused by excessive shock, vibration, or overheating. Inspect for broken or
loose electrical connections, or accumulations of dust or other foreign matter.
Correct any problems you discover, reboot the instrument, and observe the self-test results (see Figure
6-1). If the malfunction persists or the instrument fails the performance verification, contact Boonton
Electronics for service.
