If the Removable Module software version does not differ from the software installed,
then the IT-088 starts to check the Removable Module after the power has been switched
on. The corresponding message will appear on the screen of the Analyzer. After
successful check, the following message (see figure 4.1) will appear on the screen:
Figure 4.1
The screen displays the name and type of the Analyzer. After approximately 1 second,
the Analyzer will switch to automatic testing mode.
If the Base Unit was previously operated with Removable Module of a different type,
then after first switching your IT-088 might start calibration matrices loading onto the Base
Unit. In this process the currently loaded matrix type will be indicated on the screen.
CAUTION Do not turn the power off during the process of loading! This
can lead to the incorrect loading of the calibration matrices and as a result
to high measurement error.
If the IT-088 operates correctly, the voltage of both main and stand-by batteries is
normal, and the temperature inside the Removable Module corresponds to the operating
conditions, then the message similar to that in figure 4.2 will appear on the screen. In case
any defect has been detected, one of the error messages described in section 4.6 will
appear.
Then the TV system table integrity check is activated. The table is stored in the
Removable Module, and a copy of it is stored in the Base Unit. The TV system table is
downloaded in the following cases: if the table and/or its copy are corrupted or the copy is
not available. If both the table and its copy are corrupted the Analyzer will download the
table of the OIRT TV system. While the download is in progress the screen will show
TV
system loading message.
After the TV system table integrity check the main mode-selection menu (main menu)
will appear on the screen (see figure 4.3), or the last previously used measurement mode,
if you enable the quick access option (section 4.7.11).

To accelerate the procedure of turning the Analyzer on, press and hold
«MENU/ENTER» key, and set «On/Off» switch located on the side panel to “On” position.
The IT-088 will automatically display the main menu (figure 4.3). Release the key after
this. If the Analyzer previously was operating with a different Removable Module, then the
accelerated switching after changing the Module is not recommended. Follow the above
instructions.
