3.4 Initialize
The procedures presented in this section will initialize the Model 4500B and prepare it for operation. Steps 1 through 3
should be performed every time you turn on the instrument. Step 4 only needs to be performed when you wish to return the
instrument operation to a known state. This usually occurs after turning the instrument on or at the beginning of a new test. If
you have completed Subsection 2.4 Preliminary Check, you may skip this section and continue to Subsection 3.6 Practice
Exercises.
