appears on the data display.
When all programs have been loaded, the start-up
screen (below) is displayed. It provides you with the
model number of the signal generator and the revi-
sion level of the installed firmware.
The 681XXC then returns to the exact configuration
it was in when last turned off.
Standby
Operation
Whenever the signal generator is not being used, it
should be left connected to the power source and
placed in standby. Standby operation provides
power to keep the internal time base at operating
temperature. This assures specified frequency accu-
racy and stability when the 681XXC is place in op-
eration.
NOTE
During standby operation, the fan runs
continuously.
Press

to switch the 681XXC from

STANDBY
(orange LED on).
NOTE
When switching to operate from standby,
allow at least a 30-minute warmup before
beginning signal generator operations.
