CAUTION
;The Medalist In-circuit Test System should only
be installed by an Agilent-Authorized Service
Representative.
Testhead boot conflicts may occur if this system is
on a network with Medalist 3070 UNIX
controllers with IP addresses other than in the
10.3.112.XX series.
CAUTION
;The Medalist test development software requires
that decimals in the board file use a period (.) and
not any other character such as a comma. Make
use that Windows is set to use a period for
decimals. (Select Control Panel > Regional and
Language Options > Regional Options tab. Click
Customize; in the Numbers tab ensure that the
selected Decimal symbol is a period.)

Setting Up the
Support Arm with
Monitor, Keyboard,
and Mouse
The default location for the controller’s monitor,
keyboard and mouse support arm is on the right side of
the testhead, when facing the testhead from the front.
If the preferred location of the support arm is on the left
side, the pod cover(s) must be removed, then the
monitor, keyboard and mouse wiring must be re-routed.

Follow the instructions in Table 1-1.
Table 1-1 Install the support arm, monitor, keyboard, mouse
Task
1 Remove the two shipping bolts.
Do this so that the testhead can be rotated. Figure 1-3 on page 1-13 shows the location of the shipping bolts.
CAUTION
;Remove the shipping bolts before attempting to rotate the testhead. Otherwise, damage can result.
Shipping bolts can be stored for later use in the holes used by the testhead pallet shipping brackets.
2 If the support arm will be installed on the left (non-default) side, follow the steps for this task. Otherwise, continue with
task 3.
CAUTION
;Before rotating the testhead, remove all objects from the rotational path of the testhead. Damage could
result if the testhead hits anything while being rotated.
Remove the pod cover:
a If testhead connectors (BNC) are visible over the pod cover, rotate the testhead about 10 degrees to allow the pod cover
to be removed.
Apply PDU power to activate the testhead rotation switch. See Powering the PDU and Controller on page 1-19.
b Use a T20 Torx driver to remove the pod cover screws and then remove the pod cover.
c Remove power to the PDU if connected.

8 Route the monitor, keyboard and mouse cables:
CAUTION
;If the cables are not routed with enough slack (between 130 - 150 cm), they can be damaged when the
support arm is moved.
NOTE
The keyboard and mouse have cables which are long enough to allow installation on the left side.
For two- and four-module systems, a second video monitor cable is pre-installed to accommodate support
arm installation on the left side. For one-module systems, the existing video monitor cable is long enough
to reach to the left side. Re-route it through the testhead cable troughs.
It may be necessary to obtain a 8120-1763 power cord extension cable to connect power from the PDU to
the video monitor. Route the power cable through the testhead cable trough.

Adjust the Support Arm
You can adjust the height of the support arm and also
rotate it. Always adjust the height before rotating it.
To raise the support arm
1 Loosen the hand lever on the support arm and raise
the arm to the desired height. Tighten the hand lever.
NOTE
Use both hands when moving the support arm:
one hand to hold the arm and the other to push the
monitor support backwards (Figure 1-4).
2 Use an Allen key to loosen the screw on the safety
collar and raise it until it touches the bottom of the
arm. Tighten the screw on the collar to support the
arm.
To lower the support arm
1 Use an Allen key to loosen the screw on the safety
collar and lower the collar out of the way.
2 Loosen the hand lever on the arm and lower the arm
to the desired height. Tighten the hand lever.
NOTE
Use both hands when moving the support arm:
one hand to hold the arm and the other to push the
monitor support backwards (Figure 1-4).
3 Raise the collar until it touches the bottom of the arm
and tighten the screw on the collar to support the
arm.
To rotate the support arm

NOTE
The footswitch must be connected to the system.
The footswitch must be pressed to lock fixtures on
the testhead.
1 Locate the footswitch and cable that are coiled on the
front of the testhead cradle (Figure 1-5).
2 Unpack the footswitch and place it on the floor in
front of the testhead.

Preparing the Testhead
Install the Probe and Probe Cradle
The probe cradle (Figure 1-6) is located on the pod
cover of the testhead as shipped from the factory. If the
customer wants the probe in a different location, an
extra strip of sticky-backed hook-and-loop fastener is
provided with the system so you can re-locate the probe
cradle.
WARNING
;Do not place the probe cradle where it could
interfere with an overhanging test fixture, thereby
presenting a pinch hazard between the fixture and
the probe cradle.
Do not place the probe cradle where it could
interfere with testhead rotation.
1 Peel the backing paper off the hook-and-loop
fastener and affix the fastener where the customer
wants the probe cradle to be (note the Warning
above).
2 Remove the probe cradle from its current location
and press it firmly onto the hook-and-loop fastener
you just installed.
3 Unpack the probe and insert it in the probe cradle.
Figure 1-6 Probe cradle
Install the Fixture Pull-Down Label - Non-English
Only
If installing the system in an English-speaking country,
skip this step.
1 Locate the Fixture Pull-down Air Labels.
2 Choose the label that is of the correct language for
the location and apply it over the English text that is
silk-screened on the rear of the testhead near the
compressed air connectors.

Preparing the Testhead
Attach the Site LAN Cable
If the system will be connected to a network, connect
the LAN cable from the RJ45 coupler at the rear of the
pod to the site network.
Figure 1-7 LAN cable and coupler
NOTE
The RJ45 coupler should be visible from the rear
of the controller’s pod. It should not be necessary
to remove the pod cover to attach the site LAN
cable.

Supply Power to the PDU
CAUTION
;Disconnect testhead power before connecting or
disconnected testhead cables. Otherwise, damage
can result.
1 Connect the PDU power cable to the power source:
Instructions for connecting power are given in the
Site Preparation manual.
WARNING
;High Leakage Current — The safety ground in
most installation is included in the AC cord. The
system has a high leakage current therefore a
safety ground must be connected to the same
panel or location where the AC voltage is
connected. The safety ground in most installation
is included in the AC cord. A shock hazard can
arise if the AC input and the safety ground are not
grounded to the same point.
NOTE
The PDU is not serviceable; if it is defective, it
must be replaced.
WARNING
;DO NOT open the PDU for any reason.
Voltages capable of causing injury or death are
present inside the PDU, even with the switches
off.
2 Switch on the Mains Disconnect Switch:
The PDU has two switches, both of which are
accessible from the rear of the pod:
■One is the green Switched Circuits Enabled rocker
switch that enables power to the testhead – DO
NOT switch this one on yet.
■The other is the large, red rotary Mains Disconnect
Switch that enables power to the PDU outlets,
video monitor, and system controller – switch
only this one on now.

2 Open the pod door and switch on the controller.
NOTE
A line of random characters may be printed on the
strip printer. This is normal and should be ignored.
NOTE
If the Windows registration key is needed, it can
be found on the testhead controller after removing
the pod cover.
Network Configuration
If the system will be connected to a network, configure
the network now or close the configuration window(s)
and set it up later.
Instructions for network configuration can be found in
System Administration in the on-line help.
