Turning the Unit On

When the power analyzer is first turned on, it may take about 30 seconds or so to
initialize the instrument before it is ready for use. This is longer than the previous "B"
mainframes and is due to the built-in Windows CE operating system.
After you have connected the line cord, turn the unit on using the Line switch. The front panel display
lights up after a few seconds. When the front panel Meter View appears, use the front panel knobs to
enter voltage and current values. Output 1 is selected by default.
Press one of the four On keys to enable an individual output. In Meter View the power analyzer
continuously measures and displays the output voltage and current of each output.
A power-on selftest occurs automatically when you turn the unit on. This assures you
that the instrument is operational. If selftest fails, or if other operating problems occur
with your instrument, the front panel Error indicator comes on.
