Performance Tests

1. Self Tests

The self tests check the lock-in hardware. These are functional tests and do not relate to the specifications.
These tests should be checked before any of the performance tests.

Setup

No external setup is required for this test.

Procedure

1) {PRESET} (Turn on the lock-in with the [Setup] key pressed)

Check the results of the DATA, BATT, PROG and DSP tests.

2) This completes the functional hardware tests. Enter the results of this test in the test record at the end

of this section.
