This chapter provides information to install the HP E1411 multimeter,
including initial inspection, preparation for use, environment, storage and
shipment.
Inspect the shipping container for damage. If the shipping container or
cushioning material is damaged, keep the container until the shipment
contents have been checked and the instrument has been checked
mechanically and electrically. See Figure 1-1 in Chapter 1 - General
Information for shipment contents. See Chapter 4 - Verification Tests for
procedures to check electrical performance.
To avoid possible hazardous electrical shock, do not perform
electrical tests if there are signs of shipping damage to any
portion of the outer enclosure (covers, panels, etc.).
If the contents are incomplete, if there is mechanical damage or defect, or if
the instrument does not pass the electrical performance tests, notify your
nearest Hewlett-Packard Sales and Support Office. If the shipping container
is damaged or the cushioning material shows signs of stress, notify the
carrier as well as Hewlett-Packard, and keep the shipping materials for the
carrier's inspection.
See Chapter 2 of the HP E1326A/E1411A User's Manual or the
E1326B/E1411B User's Manual to prepare an HP E1411 multimeter for
use. See the appropriate mainframe user's manual(s) to prepare your
