Connecting the 16048G/H
Follow these steps below to connect the 16048G or 16048H to the 4294A.
Step 1. Set the 16048G/H to the test connectors on the front panel of the HP 4294A by
gradually coupling the four BNC connectors and fastening screws of the fixture
with the test connectors and accessory mounting holes of the instrument until they
come to complete contact.
Step 2. Fasten two of the four BNC connectors to the mating test connectors by gradually
turning the BNC connectors' rotation levers until each pair of connectors are
securely connected. Be sure to align the grooves on both sides.
Step 3. Turn clockwise the fixture's two fastening screws together, so that the fixture is
secured to the instrument.
Step 4. Finally, secure the remaining two BNC connectors of the fixture by turning
clockwise their rotation levers.
