lowing error messages will be displayed:
ROM ERROR
RAM ERROR
NO DEFLTS
UNCAL
The displayed error message can be cleared by press-
ing any front panel key. However, a problem exists
and needs to be rectified (see troubleshooting infor-
mation in the Section 7). A brief explanation of any
displayed error message is contained in Table 3-4.
NOTE
If the instrument is still under wsrrsnty and a
problem develops, it should be returned to
Keithley Instzuments, Inc. for repair.
2. Assuming the unit successfully passes the self test, it
will then briefly display the firmware revision level.
For example:
REV AO0.4
The revision level of your unit will probably be dif-

corded in case it becomes necessary to replace the
fhmware in the future.

played as in the following example:
IEEE-%
ADDRZ!
Atthefactory,theIEEEaddressoftheMode1486and
487 is set to 22. Jf If the address has been changed by
the user, then that address value will instead be dis-
Play*.

dance with the power up cotiguation discussed in
the next paragraph.
