Agilent 83491/2/3A modules require that firmware revision A.06.25 or later be
installed in the Agilent 83480A. If you wish to install the module in an
Agilent 54750A digitizing oscilloscope, you must first install the
Agilent 83480K communications firmware upgrade kit.

CAUTION
Fiber-optic connectors are easily damaged when connected to dirty or
damaged cables and accessories. The Agilent 83492A and 83493A front-panel
input connectors are no exception. When you use improper cleaning and
handling techniques, you risk expensive instrument repairs, damaged cables,
and compromised measurements. Before you connect any fiber-optic cable to
an Agilent 83492A or 83493A module, refer to “Cleaning Connections for
Accurate Measurements” on page 4-10.
CAUTION
The circuits on electrical inputs and outputs can be damaged by electrostatic
discharge (ESD). Therefore, avoid applying static discharges to any front or
rear-panel electrical connector. Before connecting any coaxial cable to a front-
panel connector, momentarily short the center and outer conductors of the
cable together. Avoid touching the front-panel connectors without first
touching the frame of the instrument. Be sure that the instrument is properly
earth-grounded to prevent buildup of static charge. Refer to “Electrostatic
Discharge Information” on page 4-8.
