IMPORTANT PRELIMINARY NOTES
Observe these important preliminary notes before using your instrument:
AVOID PLACING DISKS NEAR MAGNETS - Do not place floppy disks on top of speakers, near magnets, tele-
phones, or other sources of electromagnetic fields. The disk contents could be damaged.=
MODELS WITH OPTIONAL HARD DISK INSTALLED- the hard disk may appear to operate rather slowly the first
time you open its directory. This is caused by operations relating to the organization of the internal data and tests
on the integrity of the device. The delay is eliminated on all successive hard disk access operations. You may also
find that the Hard Disk is write protected - this is merely a precautionary measure to avoid accidental erasure of any
factory-loaded files. The protection is removed in the Disk Utility page.
UP-DATEABLE OPERATING SYSTEM - A disk containing the operating system is supplied with the instrument.
The disk can contain a more recent version of the operating system than the one contained in the instrument's
Flash ROM.
To load the operating system contained on the floppy disk:
(1) turn off the instrument, (2) insert the floppy disk in the drive, (3) turn on the instrument, (4) When the message
«Loading OS-disk clears all memory!! ENTER to load, ESCAPE to abort» appears, press ENTER to start the OS
update, (5) wait while the operating system is being loaded, (6) when the message «Loading successful (Enter to
continue)» is displayed, press ENTER. After completing this process, proceed with the power-up reset that follows
below to insure proper operation.
RESETTING AT POWER UP - If the data contained in the instrument's memory has been damaged, either by
being exposed to the effects of a strong magnetic field, or other unknown reason, the instrument may not operate
properly. The remedy is a power-up reset:
(1) Turn on the instrument while simultaneously pressing the POWER switch and rotating the DIAL, (2) when the
message «!!WARNING!! Dial on Power-Up Requests MEMORY CLEAR !! < ENTER to CLEAR / ESCAPE to
abort>» appears, press ENTER to clear the MEMORY.
