To start up the instrument
1. Make sure that the R&S
RTO is connected to the AC power supply and the
main power switch on the rear panel is in position I.
2. Press the [Power] key on the front panel.
The instrument performs a system check, boots the Windows operating sys-
tem, and then starts the R&S
RTO firmware.
The [Power] key turns green and the illuminated keys on the front panel light
up. If the previous session was terminated regularly, the oscilloscope uses the
last settings.
To shut down the instrument
► Press the [Power] key on the front panel.
All current settings are saved, and the software shuts down. The standby
power only supplies the power switch circuits and the optional oven quartz
(OCXO, option R&S RTO-B4).
Now it is safe to power off the instrument.
The "Exit" function in the "File" menu shuts down only the firmware application. To
shut down the instrument completely, also shut down the operating system in the
"Start" menu, or use the [Power] key.
