3. Operating The PM295

3.1 Instrument Turn On

Connect the PM295 to a suitable power source. When power is applied, the PM295
initiates a series of self tests. Upon completion of self tests, all the front panel LEDs
light up for one second and indicate a one-digit diagnostic code. An ' 8' represents
normal power up. If a different diagnostic code continually appears when you apply
power to the instrument, contact your local distributor. For error codes, refer to
Section 3.4.
Upon power up, the PM295 assumes the operational mode.

readings appear in the 11 windows on the front panel display . Various display
formats can be selected using the front panel keypad. Figure 3-1 shows the front
