Turning on the SDM-2012 with an Instrument
Do the following to turn on the SDM-2012 and establish a connection with an
instrument:
1. Confirm that the AC Adapter is connected to the SDM-2012 and to an AC wall
socket.
2. Press and hold the SDM-2012’s POWER button. The LEDs will turn amber.
3. When the BUMP
T
and CAL
S
LEDs turn off, release the POWER button.
4. The COPY LED will be steadily on or off and the CHARGE LED will be blinking
green if the SDM-2012 is operating properly or solid red if there is a system
failure. The amount of free memory in the SDM-2012 will dictate the condition
of the COPY LED (see “Available Memory in the SDM-2012” on page 92).
5. Install an instrument in the appropriate recess of the instrument cradle. The
plastic flap should be covering the recess not in use. Flip the plastic flap over if
it is covering the recess you need to use.
NOTE: If you are only charging an instrument or viewing or editing parameters,
you do not need to connect the gas out to instrument line or the
exhaust line to the instrument.
