Instrument warmup time
Note that the instrument requires an initial warmup time after switching it on.
A message in the status bar ("Instrument warming up...") indicates that the
operating temperature has not yet been reached. Wait until this message is
no longer displayed before you start a measurement.
To optimize the display
To optimize the display for the calibration signal, we will adjust the main measure-
ment settings.
1. Set the center frequency to the calibration frequency:
a) Tap the "Overview" softkey to display the configuration "Overview".
