User Manual PXA125

2-18 Installation

CAUTION

The outer shells of the front panel terminals (OUTPUT, SYNC OUT,
TRIG IN, SINEOUT, 10M REF IN) are connected to the instrument’s
chassis and therefore to the safety ground.

CAUTION

Do not attempt to float the OUTPUT from ground as it may damage
the PXA125 and other equipment connected to the PXA125 I/O
connectors.

Calibration

The recommended calibration interval is one year. Calibration
should be performed by qualified personnel only.

Operate the PXA125 only as intended by the manufacturer. If you
suspect the PXA125 has been impaired, remove it from the PXI
Chassis and secure against any unintended operation. The
PXA125 protection is likely to be impaired if, for example, the
instrument fails to perform the intended measurements or shows
visible damage.

Abnormal
Conditions

WARNING

Any use of the PXA125 in a manner not specified by the
manufacturer may impair the protection provided by the instrument
