Device Description
Each K1297 and K1297 Compact Protocol Tester consists of a basic
device and the individual measuring modules (interface boards) which are
for fitting the basic device according to your individual application
purposes.
The basic device is equipped with a powerful PC board, a hard disk of 2
GB and VME bus.
With K1297 seven slots are available for the measuring modules.
With K1297 Compact four slots are available for the measuring
modules.
Each basic device also features a TFT display (XGA), two PC card slots
(type II; also called PCMCIA cards), a 3.5’’ floppy disk drive and a
removable keyboard with integrated trackball.
External PE GND. On the right side of the device, next to power cord
connector, power switch, and fuses you will find an external PE GND
screw. You can use this screw terminal to connect a separate protective
earth to the K1297.
To do so, use at least an AWG18 cable. Connect the protective earth cable
between the screw head and flat washer of the PE GND. Make also a good
connection at the point where you connect the other end of the cable.
NOTE. The K1297 is intended to be electrically grounded. The delivered
power cord is equipped with a three-wire grounding plug that has a third
grounding pin. Connect this plug to a grounded AC socket.
If you are not sure that your AC socket has a protective ground, you can
connect a protective earth separately to the K1297 at the rear PE GND
screw terminal.
