Chapter 2. Preparation for Use
2-1. Initial Inspection
Please inspect the box contents and make sure all items listed are included. Keep the
shipping box and all packing materials until the inspection of the LPT 3000 Spectrum
Analy er is complete.
Table 2-1 (below) shows all accessories offered with the LPT-6000 Spectrum Analy er.
Please contact LP Technologies Customer Support for any damaged parts, missing items
or any other issue that you may need assistance with.
To clean the unit, please use a dry or wet cloth on the surface only. Do not clean the
inside of the case.
Accessories Note:
Operation Manual CD Included in the package
Power Cable (AC Power Cable 3 Holes) Included in the package
[Table 2-1] Accessories offered with the LPT 3000 Spectrum Analy er
2-2. Requirements for Power
The LPT 3000 does not need any additional external devices, use only the power cord provided.
For more information, see Table 2-2 below.
[Table 2-2] Requirements for AC Power
Input Voltage 100 - 120 VAC ( 50 - 60 H )
To prevent an electric shock, please unplug the power cord from the main power
supply on the back of the spectrum analy er before cleaning.
