Instrument status indicator
A colored LED indicator on the top right of the screen will indicate the current status of the
instrument:
• Green - no problems have been detected
• Yellow - a problem has been detected but is not serious enough to stop measurements being
taken
• Red - there is a serious problem with the system which must be corrected before any
measurements can be taken
If multiple problems have been detected, the color of the LED will reflect the most severe error. If the
LED indicator is not green, pressing it on any screen will display a list of errors and warnings. To
make sure the instrument is working correctly, it is advisable to correct all errors and warnings before
continuing.

the data displayed on screen. When all display resolutions have been defined, press Ok on the main
screen to save these values and continue.
