TARTUP

UNCTIONAL

HECKS

AND

NITIAL

ALIBRATION

We recommend reading Section 6 to become familiar with the principles of operation.
When the instrument is first started (Section 2.3.4.1, check its functionality

(Section 2.3.4.3) and run an initial calibration (Section 4). Section 2.4 introduces the

menu system, and Section 2.5 provides setup/customization instructions.

2.3.4.1 STARTUP

Upon initial startup, a sequence of status screens (Figure 2-21) appear prior to the Home

page (Figure 2-22).

Figure 2-21. Status Screens at Startup

Upon any startup, this instrument should warm up for approximately one hour before

reliable measurements can be taken.
