INTRODUCTION
The procedures in this section test the performance of the DS345 and com-
pare it to the specifications in the front of this manual. The first set of tests
test the basic functionality of the DS345 from the front panel. The second set
of tests actually measure the DS345's specifications. The results of each
test may be recorded on the test sheet at the end of this section.
