switch. The following message will be briefly displayed on the front panel when the MAIN
switch is turned on:

COPYRIGHT SUTTER INSTRUMENT CORP. 2006
After a few seconds the MAIN MENU will be displayed:
OFF= FILTER NUMBER,
INPUT = MANUAL
At this point, the Controller subsystem is ready for operation.
When the unit is first turned on, the FILTER NUMBER display will read "OFF". This
indicates that the filter selecting mirrors have been positioned to prevent lamp output from
the device. The status of the TURBO-BLANKING feature (discussed below) is also shown;
OFF is the default setting for that feature when the controller is first powered up.
The second line of the display indicates if the unit is under local control and that the unit will
execute all commands as they are received.
The unit selects the PARALLEL MODE as the default remote interface at power on. If the
unit is under remote control at power on, the appropriate remote interface mode will be
automatically set and the display may change immediately to reflect any waiting computer
commands.
