requirements.
DO NOT OPERATE THE INSTRUMENT IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE
Do not operate the instrument in the presence of flammable gases or fumes.
KEEP AWAY FROM LIVE CIRCUITS
Operating personnel must not remove instrument covers. Component replacement and internal
adjustments must be made by qualified maintenance personnel. Do not replace components with the
power cable connected. Under certain conditions dangerous voltages may exist even though the power
cable was removed, therefore; always disconnect power and discharge circuits before touching them.
DO NOT SERVICE OR ADJUST ALONE
Do not attempt internal service or adjustment unless another person, capable of rendering first aid and
resuscitation, is present.

SAFETY SYMBOLS
This safety requirement symbol has been adopted by the International Electro-technical
Commission, Document 66 (Central Office) 3, Paragraph 5.3, which directs that an
instrument be so labeled if, for the correct use of the instrument, it is necessary to refer to
the instruction manual. In this case it is recommended that reference be made to the
instruction manual when connecting the instrument to the signal source and USB host.
The CAUTION symbol denotes a hazard. It calls attention to an operational procedure,
practice or instruction that, if not followed, could result in damage to or destruction of
part or all of the instrument and accessories. Do not proceed beyond a CAUTION symbol
until its conditions are fully understood and met.
The NOTE symbol is used to mark information which should be read. This information can
be very useful to the operator in dealing with the subjects covered in this section.
The HINT symbol is used to identify additional comments which are outside of the normal
format of the manual, however can give the user additional information about the
subject.

2.2 Installation
Note!
Installation and operation of the CPS2000 GUI requires installation of the IVI.NET, IVI,
VISA.NET, and VISA shared components. The IVI.NET and IVI shared components are
included with the CPS2000 GUI software installer, but the VISA shared components are
only obtainable from a 3rd party vendor. These components must be installed before using
the CPS2000 GUI software. See section 2.1.2.
Installation of the CPS2000 GUI software application Boonton CPS2000 IVI drivers can be performed
using the CPS2000 GUI software application installer available on Boonton’s website.
The setup installer includes the CPS2000 GUI software application, the required IVI Shared Components,
and Boonton CPS2000 IVI drivers.
