STARTUP OPENING
Displays software number, version number, and serial number and prompts to
review previous tests (PREVIOUS), or start a new series of tests (NEXT)
FIELD STRENGTH, CONTINUOUS OR NORMAL MODE

the normal operating mode (NEXT)
MEMORY RESET OPTION
NEXT to start a new test series, PREVIOUS to reset memory
FREQUENCY SELECTION
On startup is used to select the operating frequency of the beacon if known.
INSUFFICIENT TRANSMITTER SIGNAL
The tester is capable of receiving marginal signals which may not be properly
processed. The resulting measurements may or may not be valid in this situation. A marginal
or weak signal could be an indication of a faulty beacon or antenna system or a tester that is
not being properly used. If in the field strength mode make sure that the tester is properly
located reference to the correct antenna, and if in the power meter mode, that the connecting
cable between the tester and the beacon is O.K.
BATTERY LEVEL
Informs when the battery level is below the minimum required to accurately operate
the tester.
READY
Identifies that the tester is armed to receive the next transmission. Also displays the
current amount of memory available and the current level of the battery charge as a
percentage of the maximum and the minimum required to maintain accuracy (10 volts).
TEMPERATURE TOO HIGH OR TOO LOW
If the internal temperature of the tester becomes too high or too low to ensure accurate
test results, the tester becomes disabled and the appropriate temperature warning is displayed.
