Power-on Inspection
When the oscilloscope is energized, pressing the power key
at the lower-left
corner of the front panel can start the oscilloscope. During the start-up process, the
oscilloscope performs a series of self-tests. After the self-test, the welcome screen is
displayed. The instrument is installed with the trial versions of the options before
leaving factory and the remaining trial time is about 2000 minutes. The "Current
Options" dialog box will be displayed if your instrument currently installs the trial
versions of options. From this dialog box you can view the name, detail, version and
remaining trial time of the option currently installed.
