2 Getting Started<br />
Installing and Connecting Modules<br />
For most applications, prior to using the <strong>34980A</strong> you will select and<br />
install modules, and make connections with terminal blocks or cabling.<br />
The following sections illustrate module and terminal block installation.<br />
Removing a Slot Cover<br />
Your <strong>34980A</strong> is shipped from the factory with one slot uncovered and<br />
the remaining seven slots covered (the illustration below shows a module<br />
already inserted in Slot 1). When you are ready to install additional<br />
modules in the seven remaining slots, you must first remove its slot<br />
cover. Using a flat blade screwdriver, pry each side of the slot cover until<br />
the cover releases from the slot.<br />
WARNING<br />
CAUTION<br />
CAUTION<br />
When any slot covers are removed, hazardous voltages may be<br />
exposed on the analog bus connectors.<br />
Install current limiting devices between high energy sources and the<br />
module inputs.<br />
Do not block air intake or exhaust vents at the sides of the instrument<br />
With the slot cover removed, you can now install a module in this slot.<br />
For detailed examples of the slot and channel numbering scheme used in<br />
the <strong>34980A</strong>, see “Slot and Channel Addressing Scheme” on page 166.<br />
