The warranted characteristics of the ZS1000, ZS1500, and ZS2500 are valid at
any temperature within the Environmental Characteristics listed in the
Specifications. However, some of the other test equipment used to verify the
performance may have environmental limitations required to meet the accuracy
needed for the procedure. Be sure that the ambient conditions meet the
requirements of all the test instruments used in his procedure.
NOTE: The correct operation of the ZS2500 controls requires software version
