Preparing for Use
Installing Optional Measurement Personalities
3. Press the Install Now key after you have entered the personality
option number and the license key number. On some instruments, a
message may appear in the function area of the display which reads,
“Insert disk and power cycle the instrument”. Disregard
this message. If you want to proceed with the installation, press the
Yes key and cycle the instrument power off and then on. Press the No
key if you wish to cancel the installation process.
Using the Uninstall Key
The following procedure removes the license key number for the
selected option. This will make the option unavailable for use, and the
message “Application Not Licensed” will appear in the Status/Info
bar at the bottom of the display. Please write down the 12-digit license
key number for the option before proceeding. If that measurement
personality is to be used at a later date you will need the license key
number to reactivate the personality firmware.
NOTE Using the Uninstall key does not remove the personality from the
instrument memory, and does not free memory to be available to install
another option. If you need to free memory to install another option,
refer to the instructions for loading firmware updates located at the
