   DP1308A Performance Verification Manual

 

1-2 

Self-test and Warm-up 

 

Make the following preparations before performance verification:   
1.

 

Perform self-test to make sure that the instrument can work normally;   

2.

 

Warm the instrument up for at least 30 minutes. 

 

 

Self-test 

 

Connect the instrument to AC power using the power cord provided with the 
accessories. Turn on the power switch at the rear panel; then press the power key 

 

at the front panel;  the instrument starts and performs self-test. If the instrument 

passes the self-test, the user interface is displayed; otherwise, the  self-test error 

prompt message is displayed.   

 

You can press Utility 

 

 

  SelfTest 

  Test  to perform self-test after the 

instrument starts.   

 

If the self-test fails, make sure  that  the problems are found and solved and the 
instrument passes the self-test before performing the performance verification test.   

 

 

Warm-up 

 
Warm the instrument up for at least 30 minutes before performing the performance 
verification test.
