A-1 Introduction
This appendix provides a list of instrument messages and their meaning and procedures for a full system
recovery. If any error condition persists, contact your local Anritsu Service Center
(http://www.anritsu.com/contact-us).
Field Master Pro displays the following message types:
• Self-Test Messages, indicating self-test pass or fail conditions.
• File Management Notifications, relating to the system (3-line) menu FILES actions.
• Informational Notifications, such as notification of a screen capture.
• Warning Notifications, such as an ADC over-range warning.
• Error Notifications, such as an internal instrument fault.
Messages have the following display characteristics:
• Transient messages appear briefly and then fade away.
• Persistent messages remain on the display and require user intervention to correct the condition.
• Some messages are logged but not displayed, such as messages in the event log.
• Messages may be displayed either in the Toolbar or in a pop-up window.
Procedures to recover from system software faults can be found in Section A-7 “System Recovery”
on page A-20.
Follow the Section A-8 “UDP Discovery Tool Firewall Settings” on page A-24 to change the Windows firewall
settings if Discovery Tool is unresponsive.
Refer to Section A-9 “System Override” on page A-26 if the instrument does not respond to SCPI commands
and needs to be reset remotely.
