2-12 Initial Setup
Powering On and Off
To operate the PM880, the battery must be charged as described
in the previous section.
IMPORTANT: For CE compliance, the PM880 is classified as a
battery-powered device.
To turn the PM880 on, press the red button in the upper-right-
hand corner of the keypad. Immediately upon power up the
PM880 displays a “PCI Loader” message. It then validates the
instrument programming, and then displays the GE Panametrics
logo and the software version. If the meter fails any of these tests,
contact GE Panametrics.
!WARNING!
If the meter fails the backup battery test, you
must send the unit back to the factory for a
battery replacement. Make sure you keep the
NiMH batteries charged until you are ready to
ship the unit back to the factory. Before
shipping, print out all the log and site data, or
transfer it to your PC.
