2-2 PN: 10580-00305 Rev. L MS20xxC UG
To turn on the VNA Master, press the On/Off front panel button (Figure 2-1).
The VNA Master requires approximately thirty-five seconds to complete the power-on cycle
and load the application software. At the completion of this process, the instrument is ready
to use.
The VNA Master performs a self test during each power-on cycle. If the self test fails, then
refer to “Self Test or Application Self Test Error Messages” on page C-2 in
Appendix C, “Error Messages”. For maximum accuracy, letting the instrument warm up for
approximately 15 minutes is a good practice before performing a calibration.
