The Front Panel
The front panel of your PowerChrom 280 unit, Figure 1–1 , has three
indicators that show the various states of the system.
The Power indicator is a blue light which shows when the recording unit
is on. If this indicator does not light when the unit is switched on, check
that power is turned on at the wall socket and the mains cord is
plugged in correctly. Also check that the power socket is working by
connecting another appliance.
