The oscilloscope has a built-in soft power-off function that safely powers off the
oscilloscope when you press the On/Standby switch.
To completely remove power to the instrument, perform the shutdown just
described, and then set the power switch on the rear panel to off.
Now that you have completed the basic installation process, you should create an
emergency startup disk that you can use to restart your instrument in case of a
major hardware or software failure. You should create this disk, and then store it
in a safe place.
CAUTION.
Create this disk and store it in a safe place. It may allow you to
recover your Windows installation without rebuilding the entire instrument hard
disk.
The emergency startup disk contains basic files to restart your instrument. It also
contains files to check and format the hard disk.
Follow these steps to create the emergency startup disk:
1. Minimize the oscilloscope application by selecting Minimize from the File
menu.
2. Select the Windows Start button, point to Settings, and then click Control
Panel.
3. In the Control Panel, double-click Add/Remove Programs.
4. Click the Startup Disk tab.
5. Insert a floppy disk into the disk drive and follow the on-screen instructions
to create the startup disk.
