Getting Started
Turning the POWER Switch On
Check that the power cord is connected properly.
Turn the unit on with the front panel power switch. The front panel display will
light up after a few seconds. A power-on self-test occurs automatically when
you turn the unit on. This test assures you that the power source is operational.
If a self-test error occurs, an error message will be displayed in the front panel.
Press the [Esc] button to try to clear the current fault status. The user can also
restart the instrument to try to clear the fault status. Wait until the power is
turned off and then start again. If the problem still cannot be solved after restart-
ing, please contact the ITECH engineer. Please refer to Error information list for
detailed information about common error messages.
• It may take about 30 seconds or so for the power source to initialize before it is
ready for use.
• When you turn the POWER switch on for the first time after purchase, the instru-
ment starts with its factory default settings. Each time thereafter, the instrument
starts according to the setting that you selected as outlined in 4.11.5 Set the
Power-on State.
Turning the POWER Switch Off
Turn the unit off with the front panel power switch. When it is turned off, the in-
strument interface will prompt “AC Power Off”.
After you turn the POWER switch off, wait at least 10 seconds after the fan
stops before you turn the POWER switch back on. Turning the instrument on
too soon after you turn it off can cause damage to the inrush current limiter cir-
cuit, as well as reduce the life of components such as the POWER switch and
the internal input fuses.
