(2) Test if the voltages on the test points marked “-5V” and “LED_ANODE”
are within the spec range.
(3) If the instrument still does not work normally, please contact SIGLENT.
3. No response after pressing any button or abnormal display of the
screen:
(1) Check if the two end of the connector between the keypad circuit board
and the main board is properly connected.
(2) If the instrument still does not work normally, please contact SIGLENT.
