Prerequisites
●
The instrument is set up, connected to the mains system, and started up as descri-
bed in chapter 3.1, "Preparing for Use", on page 20.
For these first measurements, you use the internal calibration signal, so you do not
need any additional signal source or instruments. Try out the following:
