Turning the Unit On and Off
There are two ways to turn off the IDEAL OTDR
³
Suspend
: the next time you turn your unit on, you will quickly return to
your work environment.
³
Shutdown
: completely cuts power to the unit; the unit will perform a
complete restart routine the next time you use it. You should perform a
shutdown if you do not intend to use your unit for a week or more.
To turn the unit on:
Press Pwr. The unit initializes for a few seconds and displays the

To enter the suspend mode:
Hold down the Pwr key for about two seconds. Release the key as soon as
you hear a beep.
To perform a shutdown:
