OPERATION
Tests can be run on the system any time after the battery has been charged. It is recommended, however,
that the correct time and date are entered and configuration preferences are selected before tests are run.
Note: Refer to Setting Output Options, Setting Program Options, Customizing the Printed
Heading and Setting Supervisor Options for instructions to enter the correct date and time and

Starting the Instrument
Press either START key. Self-test results are briefly displayed.

After the self-test results are displayed, the instrument signals it is ready for operation by displaying operator
instructions.
