is on, the display shows the desktop with a headline in the top
block, the Menu, the instrument's serial number, peripheral
interfaces at the bottom block, and the current status in the
center of the display.

performed correctly and all of the internal test criteria meet
specifications and are within the defined tolerances, the final
result of the breath alcohol analysis is displayed and a protocol
is printed on the external printer.
Each operating step carried out on the 9510 is supported
