KeysightInstallation for IFD™ TE Rack-Mount variants
Ø Supported Devices Keysight: 3446x
Post 2016, it is likely that the Keysight 3446x is installed as the DMM of choice to provide DMM support.
![]() Connecting Device
Use the connection shown below for the Keysight device:
All IFD™ continuity based tests need the 34465a to be connected using pass-through Ethernet cable to connect to the LAN of the CC.
NODES™ can carry out basic point2point continuity tests and supported Keysight devices can be connected using a number of methods by either using Ethernet peer to peer on a LAN as resource or by USB; note to use the appropriate connection string for LAN and USB in the DMM Options.
Connection to the IFD™ TE is via the high-quality LEMO provided on the rack-mounted equipment, to the front or the rear panel of the Agilent.

![]() To avoid possible damage to the IFD™ TE
or the equipment under test, follow these guidelines:
· Do not use this equipment on any “powered” circuits. The IFD™ TE supplies the entire electronic testing stimulus needed. Failure to do so could damage the equipment and void the factory warranty.
· Do not connect the IFD™ TE system to any additional test equipment that produces stimulated High Voltages or Currents that might damage the IFD™ hardware, and this will include insulation tests and it may include some Diode testing; if unsure then contact your Distributor for more information before proceeding.
