ESD Information
Protection from Electrostatic Discharge
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage or destroy electronic components. All work on electronic
assemblies should be performed at a static-safe workstation. Figure 1 shows an example of a
static-safe workstation using two types of ESD protection:
— Conductive table-mat and wrist-strap combination.
— Conductive floor-mat and heel-strap combination.
Both types, when used together, provide a significant level of ESD protection. Of the two, only the
table-mat and wrist-strap combination provides adequate ESD protection when used alone. To
ensure user safety, the static-safe accessories must provide at least 1 megohm of isolation from
ground.
Figure 1 Example of a Static-Safe Workstation
These techniques for a static-safe workstation should not be used when working on circuitry
with a voltage potential greater than 500 volts.

Installation Note N9038-90018 7
Option HL4 - High Performance Digital Signal Processing Upgrade
Handling of Electronic Components and ESD
The possibility of unseen damage caused by ESD is present whenever components are transported,
stored, or used. The risk of ESD damage can be greatly reduced by paying close attention to how all
components are handled.
— Perform work on all components at a static-safe workstation.
— Keep static-generating materials at least one meter away from all components.
— Store or transport components in static-shielding containers.
Test Equipment Usage and ESD
— Before connecting any coaxial cable to an analyzer connector, momentarily short the center and
outer conductors of the cable together.
— Personnel should be grounded with a 1 megohm resistor-isolated wrist-strap before touching
the center pin of any connector and before removing any assembly from the analyzer.
— Be sure that all analyzers are properly earth-grounded to prevent build-up of static charge.
For Additional Information about ESD
For more information about preventing ESD damage, contact the Electrical Over
Stress/Electrostatic Discharge (EOS/ESD) Association, Inc. The ESD standards developed by this
agency are sanctioned by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
Always handle printed circuit board assemblies by the edges. This will reduce the possibility of
ESD damage to components and prevent contamination of exposed plating.

Installation Instructions
Instrument Software Version Verification
1. Determine what version of instrument software is currently installed in the MXE being
upgraded by pressing the following front panel keys:
System, Show, System
The software revision can be found on this screen as the:
Instrument S/W Revision
If a software update is required, the latest version of MXE instrument software and installation
instructions can be downloaded from:
http://www.keysight.com/find/mxe_software
Once the instrument software requirement has been met proceed to step 2.
If the instrument software version is not A.13.60 or higher it will need to be updated before
proceeding with this upgrade.

Instrument Dress Cover Removal
2. Turn the instrument off and remove the ac power cord.
3. Refer to Figure 2. Using the T-20 driver, remove the four screws (1) that attach the strap
handles (2) to each side of the instrument.
4. Remove the four bottom feet and locks (6) by lifting the tabs on the feet and sliding them to
disengage from the outer case.
5. Using the T-20 driver, remove the four screws and washers (3) that hold the four rear feet (4)
in place.
6. The instrument dress cover (5) can now be removed by pulling it off to the rear of the
instrument.
Figure 2 Instrument Dress Cover Removal
If the instrument is placed on its face during any of the following procedures, be sure to use a soft
surface or soft cloth to avoid damage to the front panel, keys, or input connector.

Top Brace and Power Supply Bracket Removal
7. Refer to Figure 3. Using the T-10 driver remove the twelve pan head screws (3) (0515-0372)
attaching the MP10 Top Brace (1) to the chassis, along the Cable Hold Down 1
as shown in Figure 4.
8. If Option LSN is installed remove the two flat head screws (7) (0515-1227) attaching the top
brace to the A30 LISN Control board assembly.
9. Remove the fifteen flat head screws (4) (0515-1227) attaching the top brace to the board
assemblies. The top brace can now be removed.
10.Using the T-10 driver remove the eight pan head screws (5) (0515-0372) and the three flat
head screws (6) (0515-1227) attaching the MP9 Power Supply Bracket (2) to the instrument.
The power supply bracket can now be removed.
