Switching On the Instrument
After switching on the instrument the display indicates that the
instrument selftest is running. This can take several seconds to complete.
If the selftest fails, you see a flashing E at the bottom of the screen. Press
the HELP key to see a list of the selftest error messages. Use the knob or
the cursor keys to scroll through the list if necessary.
To return to normal operation press HELP again. Note that the selftest
error messages are removed from the error queue after this.
