Powering On/Off
The Power button controls the operational state of the oscilloscope.
Press the button to switch on the instrument; press it again to switch “off”
(i.e., Standby power).
Always use the Power button or the File > Shutdown menu option to
execute a proper shut down process and preserve settings. Pressing
and holding the button will execute a “hard” shutdown, the same as on
a computer, but we do not recommend doing this because it does not
allow the Windows operating system to shut down properly.
The Power button does not disconnect the oscilloscope from the AC
power supply; some “housekeeping” circuitry continues to draw power.
The only way to fully power down the instrument is to use the Power
button or the File > Shutdown command, then unplug the AC line cord
from the outlet.
We recommend unplugging the instrument if it will remain unused for a
long period of time.
CAUTION. Do not change the instrument’s Windows ®
Power Options from the default Never to System Standby
or System Hibernate modes.
CAUTION. Do not place the instrument so that it is difficult
to reach the power cord in case you need to disconnect
from power.
Software Activation
The oscilloscope operating software (firmware and standard applications)
is active upon delivery.

LeCroy website at teledynelecroy.com/support/softwaredownload.
