This chapter introduces you to the Agilent E5505A Phase Noise

Measurement System. It contains an overview of the system, system

specifications, and guidelines for unpacking a system. It also provides a

reading road map for installation documentation.

8E5505A Installation Guide

1General Information

Introduction

Use this guide to unpack, connect instruments (if needed), power on,

configure, test, and power off your Agilent E5505A Phase Noise

Measurement System. For all system models, start with the information in

this chapter—especially the unpacking guidelines starting on page 10.

If you’ve ordered a racked system, it arrives as a turnkey solution—ready

to power on with all hardware and software installed. If you’ve ordered a

flat- panel display, procedures for mounting it are in Chapter 2. Follow the

powering on procedures in Chapter 4 and you’re ready to make your first

measurement.

A benchtop system arrives with all hardware and software installed, but

you must connect the instruments with the appropriate cables. You’ll find

instrument connection diagrams in Chapter 3. (Agilent ships the needed

cables with the system.) Then proceed to Chapter 4 to power on your

system and make your first measurement.

Use Table 1 as a guide to the chapters to use for your model:

•Racked system

•Benchtop system

NOTE

If you need to re-install the phase noise hardware and software in the E5505A system PC

for any reason, refer to the E5505A Phase Noise Measurement System User’s Guide for

information and procedures.

Unpacking and Inspecting the System

This section presents procedures for unpacking a racked system and a

benchtop model. Do not attempt to unpack your system without reviewing

them.

To unpack a racked system

To unpack an E5505A racked system, you need the following tools:

•Safety glasses

•Klimp hammer or prybar to remove the klimps

•Socket wrench and sockets

•Pliers

To remove the racked system from the packing crate, follow these steps:

1Remove the klimps from the crate wall marked “Ramp Panel.”

2Position the ramp panel to create a ramp. The non- hinged end rests on

the crate base and the hinged flap meets the floor.

3Secure the ramp panel to the base by placing the drop- in bolt (located

in the packing foam) through the holes in the ramp and the base of the

crate.

4Remove the remaining crate walls and top, as well as the foam padding

from the top of the cabinet and the anti- static bag covering the cabinet.

5Remove the center restraining bolts and cleats holding the cabinet to

the crate base using the socket wrench. These bolts are located on the

ramp side of the crate and the side opposite.

6Lift the side bolts from the curb gate on the ramp side of the crate base

using pliers. Remove the curb gate.

7With one person behind the system and two guiding the sides, gently

roll the system down the ramp.

NOTE

Retain all packing material—crate, foam, curb gate, bolts, cleats, and klimps—for future

use should you need to move the system to another location.

WARNING

Always wear safety glasses or goggles when removing steel clips (klimps) from

the shipping crate. These clips are under tension and when pried free can spring

back and cause injury to unprotected eyes.

10 E5505A Installation Guide

1General Information

To unpack a benchtop system

To unpack an E5505A benchtop system, you need the following tools:

•Safety glasses

•Sturdy scissors

1Cut and remove the plastic straps that secure the shipping container

and lift the lid.

2Remove and open the individual shipping boxes.

3Carefully remove the contents from each box.

Inspecting the system

After unpacking a racked or benchtop system, the next step is to inspect

the shipping container and its contents thoroughly to ensure that nothing

was damaged during shipment.

Verify that all parts and materials are included in your shipment:

•E5500 Phase Noise Measurement System software and documentation

CD- ROM

•E5500 Software Keyword Licence Certificate

•Recovery media kit for Microsoft® Windows XP Pro®

WARNING

Do not stand in the path of a system being moved down the incline of the cabinet

ramp.

NOTE

Retain all packing material—crate, pallet, boxes, foam, etc.—for future use should you

need to move the system to another location.

WARNING

Always wear safety glasses or goggles when cutting plastic straps from the

shipping container. These straps are under tension and when cut can snap and

cause injury to unprotected eyes.

NOTE

If the container or packing material is damaged, the contents should be checked both

mechanically and electrically. If the contents are damaged or defective, contact your

customer engineer through your local Agilent Technologies Service Center. Keep the

shipping materials for the transport company’s inspection.

For instructions on removing an instrument from the system, see Chapter 6. See

Appendix A for return procedures.
