5.1 Powering UP
PIM-P Analyzers power up in a similar fashion to a desktop PC. However, there is one
exception: significant RF power has to be controlled and managed. For this reason PIM-P
series test systems contain a protection system to protect the hardware, e.g. prevents
unusual on/and off cycles (e.g. 3 cycles per second). When used normally, the user will not
even recognize that these protective mechanisms are working.
Preparations for powering up:
Ensure that the main outlet has proper grounding. Connect the correct power cable to
the tester Connect the power cable to the main outlet

Switch on the PIM-P main power switch at the
backside of the unit. Allow for a short delay
before switching on front power button. (This will
allow protection circuitry to enable all PIM-P
modules).

Push Start Button briefly at the front panel.
The system will boot up automatically and show the user interface in the Field Mode.
