Upgrade Types:  

A) BASIC to BASIC PLUS

: On the SETUP screen an additional icon for stochastic (FM) screening should now be present 

underneath the icon for standard AM screening. 

B) BASIC or BASIC PLUS to ADVANCED

: All of the advanced features such as PAPER, STOCHASTIC, LED COLOR, and 

CURVE PLOT will now be available on the SETUP screen. 

Be careful not to accidentally go into the upgrade function

. Entering the wrong 

values will cause the instrument to revert to a BASIC model. You will need to enter 

the upgrade code again to return to the ADVANCED mode.
