Installation

2.1

Parts List

Inspect the shipping container for damage.

If the shipping container seems to be damaged, keep it until you have inspected the contents
and you have inspected the  ERM100 mechanically and electrically.

Verify that you have received the following items within the package:

1.

1 ERM100

2.

1 power cord, connector according to ordering country

3.

2 Replacement mains fuses

4.

1 operation manual

5.

1 CD Rom

6.

1 USB Cable

2.2

Getting Started

Connect the ERM100 to the power outlet.

Turn the unit on by pressing the power switch at the front.

After switching on the unit, the display will show the device version and then jump to the opera-
tion screen. 

The ERM100 is immediately ready to use after turning on. The rated accuracy is reached, how-
ever, after a warming-up time of approx. 15 minutes.

The chassis ground can be connected to ground potential via the banana connector jack to the
external optical build-up, if required.
