Installation / Setup
The installation/setup highlights for the Model 4045B Arbitrary Function Generator include the following key points:
1. Grounding: The instrument chassis and cabinet must be connected to an electrical ground to minimize shock hazard. This is achieved through the ground conductor of the supplied three-conductor AC power cable, which must be plugged into an approved three-conductor electrical outlet. Altering the ground connection is not advised as it can lead to electric shock.
2. Power Requirements: Before connecting the line cord to the AC mains, it is important to check the rear panel AC line voltage indicator. Applying a line voltage other than the indicated voltage can destroy the AC line fuses. Fuses should only be replaced with those of the specified voltage and current ratings for continued fire protection.
3. Safety Precautions: The device should not be operated in an explosive atmosphere or in the presence of flammable gases or fumes. Additionally, live circuits should be avoided, and instrument covers should not be removed by operating personnel. Internal adjustments and component replacements should only be performed by qualified maintenance personnel.
4. Handling Precautions: The product contains components that can be damaged by electro-static discharge (ESD). Proper procedures for handling, storing, and transporting parts and subassemblies with ESD-sensitive components should be followed to avoid damage.

Safety & Warnings
The following safety precautions apply to both operating and maintenance personnel and must be observed during all phases of operation, service, and repair of this instrument:
1. Ground the Instrument: To minimize shock hazard, the instrument chassis and cabinet must be connected to an electrical ground. This is achieved through the ground conductor of the supplied three-conductor AC power cable, which must be plugged into an approved three-conductor electrical outlet. Altering the ground connection can result in electric shock.
2. Do Not Operate in an Explosive Atmosphere: Avoid using the instrument in the presence of flammable gases or fumes, as it constitutes a safety hazard.
3. Keep Away from Live Circuits: Operating personnel should not remove instrument covers. Component replacement and internal adjustments should be performed by qualified maintenance personnel. Always disconnect the power cord before removing covers and replacing components, as dangerous voltages may exist even with the power cable removed.
4. Do Not Service or Adjust Alone: Internal service or adjustments should not be attempted unless another person capable of rendering first aid and resuscitation is present.
5. Do Not Substitute Parts or Modify the Instrument: Unauthorized modifications or installation of substitute parts can compromise safety features. Service and repair should be conducted by B&K Precision to maintain safety standards.
Warnings and Cautions:
– A WARNING statement indicates a procedure, practice, or condition that could result in injury or death if not followed correctly.
– A CAUTION statement indicates a procedure, practice, or condition that could result in damage to the product if not followed correctly.
Specific Warnings and Cautions:
– WARNING: Do not alter the ground connection to avoid electric shock.
– WARNING: Disconnect the power cord before removing covers to avoid electrical shock hazard. Servicing should be referred to qualified personnel.
– CAUTION: Check the rear panel AC line voltage indicator before connecting the line cord to the AC mains. Incorrect line voltage can destroy the AC line fuses. Replace fuses only with those of the specified voltage and current ratings for continued fire protection.
– CAUTION: The product contains components sensitive to electro-static discharge (ESD). Proper procedures should be followed to avoid damage when handling, storing, and transporting these components.
