Infiniium Oscilloscopes

In This Book
This book gives you the information you need to begin using the Infiniium
Oscilloscopes. It contains four chapters:
Setting up the Oscilloscope Chapter 1 contains inspection, power
requirements, air flow, and setup information.
Working in Comfort Chapter 2 contains recommendations for working
comfortably and safely while operating the Infiniium Oscilloscope.
Using the Oscilloscope Chapter 3 gives an overview of the front panel and
the graphical user interface, and tells you how to perform basic operations with
the oscilloscope.
Using the Built-In Information System Chapter 4 describes the built-in
information system contents and navigation. The built-in information system
contains all of the information that is generally found in a User’s Guide.
• For detailed information on how the oscilloscope makes measurements and
how to use the oscilloscope, see the built-in information system in the
oscilloscope.
• For information on programming the oscilloscope using a computer with a
GPIB interface card or LAN interface card, see the Oscilloscopes
Programmer’s Reference for your model number oscilloscope found in the
Infiniium Information System.
• For information on testing and servicing the oscilloscope, see the Service
Guide manual for your model number oscilloscope found in Infiniium
Information System.

• Touchscreen Stylus
• 10073C 10:1 10 MΩpassive probes (one for each analog channel on 8000A
series models only)
• Digital Probe Kit (MSO models only)
• Calibration Cable (80000B series models only)
• SMA to Precision BNC Adaptors (80000B series models only)
• Accessory Pouch
• Front Panel Cover
• Keyboard
•Powercord
• Probe De-skew and Performance Verification Kit (80000B series models
only)
•User’s Quick Start Guide
See the following figures for your model of Infiniium Oscilloscope. (See table
1-4 for the power cord.) If anything is missing, contact your nearest Agilent
Technologies Sales Office. If the shipment was damaged, contact the carrier,
then contact the nearest Agilent Technologies Sales Office.
❏Inspect the oscilloscope.
• If there is mechanical damage or a defect, or if the oscilloscope does not
operate properly or does not pass performance tests, notify your Agilent
Technologies Sales Office.
• If the shipping container is damaged, or the cushioning materials show signs
of stress, notify the carrier and your Agilent Technologies Sales Office. Keep
the shipping materials for the carrier’s inspection. The Agilent Technologies

To connect power
1Position the oscilloscope where it will have sufficient clearance for
airflow around the top, back, and sides.
2Position the oscilloscope so that it is not difficult to unplug the power
cord.

3Connect the power cord to the rear of the oscilloscope, then to a
suitable ac voltage source (100 to 240 VAC ±10%, 47 to 63 Hz all models
for the 8000A series and 100 to 240 VAC ±10%, 47 to 63 Hz for the 80000B
series)
Maximum power dissipation: 80000B series is 550 W and 8000A series is 440 W.
Figure 1-4
Infiniium Oscilloscope Power Cord Connection
The oscilloscope power supply automatically adjusts for line input voltages in
the range 100 to 240 VAC. Therefore, you do not need to adjust an input line
voltage setting. The line cord provided is matched by Agilent Technologies to
the country of origin of the order.
4Ensure that you have the correct line cord. See table 1-4.
