When the oscilloscope is connected to power, press the Power key
at the
lower-left corner of the front panel to start the oscilloscope if the power status is
currently set to "Default"; if the power status is currently set to "Open", the
oscilloscope starts automatically, and you do not have to press down the Power key.
During the start-up process, the oscilloscope performs a series of self-tests. You can
hear the switching sound of the relay. After the self-test, the welcome screen is
displayed. The instrument is installed with the trial versions of the options before
leaving factory. Its remaining trial time is about 2,000 minutes. The "Installed
Options" dialog box will be displayed if your instrument currently installs the trial
versions of the options. From this dialog box, you can view the option type, option
name, option edition, and the remaining trial time of the option currently installed.
