9895A Installation Procedure
To install a 9895A, follow this procedure:
1. Unpack the 9895A and account for all furnished equipment.
2. Check the voltage selection switches on the rear panel (see Figure 1-1).
If
the setting is
incorrect, change it to the correct voltage.
3. Ensure that the fuse in the rear panel is the correct rating (see Table 1-3).
4. Set the bus address select switch on the front of the controller board on the master
unit.
5. Connect the ac power cord to the power input connector on the back of the unit (see
Figure 1-5) and to an appropriate ac power source.
6. Turn the 9895A on and run the exercises described in the Self-Test section.

8. Install the appropriate ROM in the mainframe ROM drawer {see Table 1-4).
9.
If
connecting the 9895A to an existing HP-IB bus, plug one end of the 8120-2718
cable into the socket on the rear panel of the 9895A and the other end into the socket
on a nearby mass storage device (see Figure 1-5).
If connecting directly to a mainframe, set the select code on the interface body and
plug it into the socket on the rear panel of the mainframe. Then plug the other end
into the socket on the rear panel of the 9895A (see Figure 1-5).
If connecting a slave unit, use the 9895-61606 cable to connect the slave to the
master (see Figure 1-5).
10. Turn the mainframe and all peripherals on. All peripherals connected to a bus should
be turned on for the system to operate properly.
11. Install the System Exerciser Cartridge in the mainframe.
12. Select the 9895A exerciser from the menu and load it.
13. Install an initialized scratch disc in all drives. Close the doors.
14. Allow the Exerciser to run. It will repeat for all drives.
15. Blank discs can now be initialized on the drives.
