Carefully remove the instrument from its shipping case.
Note: During operation, the unit will work correctly regardless of the
physical orientation, such as sideways in a specially designed
Ergonomic Pro-Pack.

connection and power output.
The computer is located directly below the instrument between the foam
inserts.
Under the computer compartment, there is a circular cut-out. Carefully
remove the fiber-optic cable located below the foam insert at the bottom of the
case.
The remaining portion of the case is designed to hold the various accessories
that may have been purchased with the instrument. There are specific
locations for the Contact Probe, Hi-Bright Muglite, Spectralon, battery pack,
and miscellaneous power cables.
The fiber cable should never be stored with a bend of less
than a 5" diameter for long periods of time, because the
cable can be damaged with undetectable longitudinal
fractures that can cause light leakage and weaker signals.
