Power-on Inspection
When the oscilloscope is energized, press the power key
at the lower-left
corner of the front panel to start the oscilloscope. During the start-up process, the
oscilloscope performs a series of self-tests and you can hear the sound of relay
switching. After the self-test, the “Current Options” dialog box will be displayed if
your instrument currently installs the trial versions of opetions. From this dialog box
you can view the types, names, versions and the time left of the options currently
installed. The trial versions of the opetions will be provided when the instrument
leaves factory and the time left is about 2000 minutes.
