2-2. Initial inspection consists of a check for physical
damage incurred during shipping, and the completion of all
performance tests. See Figure 2-1 for Recorder inspection
particulars.
2-3. Mechanical Check.
24.
If
damage to the shipping carton is evident, notify the
HP
Sales/Service Office and unpack the equipment in the
presence of the carrier's agent. Upon unpacking, inspect the
instrument for mechanical damage such as scratches, dents,
broken knobs, or other defects. Also check the cushioning
maieri'! ls for signs of severe stress during handling.
2-5. Performance Tests.
2-6. The electrical and mechanical performance of the
Model 7414A Thermal Tip Recording System may be
verified upon receipt, using performance tests described in
Section V, Maintenance. An 8800-Series Preamplifier must
be in place for these tests.
2-7. Damage Claims.
2-8. If the instrument is damaged in transit, notify the
carrier and the nearest Hewlett-Packard Sales/Service Office
immediately. For your convenience, a list of these offices is
located in the rear of this manual. Keep the shipping carton
and packaging material for the carrier's inspection. The
Sales/Service Office will arrange for repair or replacement
of the System without waiting for claim settlements from
the carrier.
2-9. STORAGE.
2-10.
If
the Recording System is to be stored for a period
of time, wrap the front panels in protective padding and
seal the equipment in a moisture-proof covering. Repackage
the System in a container similar to the original factory
carton. If the System is installed in a Bench Top Enclosure,
leave it mounted in the enclosure. If it is installed in a
Mobile Cart or equipment rack, remove it from the cart or
rack to facilitate moistureproof packaging. If long-term
storage is anticipated, pull the paper table out at the Cart
drawer and unlatch it. This will prevent a flat spot from
developing on the drive roller from the spring-loaded
pressu re rolle r.

2-12. Recording Systems installed in the Bench Top Enclo-
sure do not require installation instructions. For access to
the Recorder, loosen knobs at the front of the case and
raise the top cover (see Figure 2-1). If the Recorder is
installed in a Mobile Cart, release the four front-panel
shipping screws to slide the Recorder out for receiving
inspection and performance checks (see Figure 2-1).
If
the
Recorder is installed in an existing equipment rack, the rack
slides must be installed before mounting the Recorder
(Option 001).
2-13. Preamplifier Installation.
2-14. The Recording System is shipped with all preampli-
fiers installed. To change a preamplifier, perform the
following steps.
a.
Switch off Recorder power.
b.
Loosen the top and bottom front panel screws and
pull the preamplifier straigh t ou t.
c.
Insert the replacement preamplifier into the channel
guide, push firmly to mate connectors, and tighten screws
at the top and bottom of the front panel.
2-15. Power Connections.
2-16. Check that the power line voltage and frequency is
the same as that shown on the Recorder nameplate, located
on a shelf at the left side of the rear panel (see Figure 2-2).
Note locations of the fuses.
2-17. When making power connections, push the POWER
button on the front panel so that it protrudes and a
Z-shaped line appears. Otherwise, the recorder will start
when the power cord is plugged in. Refer to Figure 2-3 and
perform the following steps for Mobile Cart power connec-
tions.
a.
Connect a ground wire (as shown) to a good earth
ground, such as a cold water pipe.
b.
Check that the paper take-up drawer is grounded with
a strap, and that the recorder chassis is grounded to the
cart.
c.
Plug the power cord connector into the recorder
POWER INPUT jack, and into the line receptacle built into
the cart.
d.
Connect the cart power cord to a 3-wire line outlet,
completing the power connections.
