Running Self-Test
The subsequent instructions for the self-test are given in terms of button pushes
from the front panel. The same instructions can also be initiated with the IEEE
488 instructions in a system environment.
Note
The Base level self-test can be run with or without a Leveling Head
attached. However, when a Leveling Head is attached, ensure that
the Leveling Head output is disconnected during self-test and that
there are no earth connections to the floating RF common. This
includes the Leveling Head body and the top two rear BNC
connectors.

1. Prepare the Instrument for operation.
2. Push .
3. Push the Support Functions softkey.
4. Push the Self-Test softkey at the bottom of the display. The Self-Test screen
is shown. See Figure 5-12.
The screen shows that no tests have been executed and provides for the
selection of the self-test sequence to run, All, Base, or Head.
