Before turning the Optical Power Meter on, please read Electrical Safety
Information on page 8. To turn the unit on and off, use the red button in the
lower left corner of the front panel.

any measurements, it is recommended that you null the detector offsets
(see scroll (left/right arrows) until EXIT is displayed, then press ENTER. on
page 12). When the unit is turned off, the following items remain in
non-volatile memory:
³
manually stored data
³
acquisition data
³
reference values
³
remote control settings

shortlisted wavelengths
³
customized settings

saved configurations (up to 10)
Note: The power cord is the most effective disconnect device. To ensure the
power is completely turned off, disconnect the power cord.
