Test Programs
Test Programs are test parameter sets. They are sequentially numbered from 1 to the
total number of programs entered into the instrument. The figure below shows program
1 selected, as indicated by the yellow arrow. The 1/20 in the upper right hand corner
indicates that a total of 20 test programs have been defined and the blue cursor bar is on
number 1 out of 20. The “(Factory)” programs are for standard tests to check the
performance of the instrument. The MAX
®
4000XL has 245 user programs and 5 factory
programs, while the MAX
®
4000 only has 6 user programs and 4 factory programs. (The
(Factory) DRIFT test is only available on the MAX
®
4000XL.)

IDLE TEMPERATURE of room temperature (25 °C) to avoid undesired heating. To
