Notice

Hewlett-Packard to Agilent Technologies Transition

This manual may contain references to HP or Hewlett-Packard. Please note that Hewlett-

Packard’s former test and measurement, semiconductor products and chemical analysis

businesses are now part of Agilent Technologies. To reduce potential confusion, the only

change to product numbers and names has been in the company name prefix: where a

product name/number was HP XXXX the current name/number is now Agilent XXXX. For

example, model number HP8648 is now model number Agilent 8648.
