START-UP
The
2465
automatically performs power-up tests each
time the instrument
is
turned on. The purpose of these
tests
is
to provide the user with the highest possible con-
fidence level that the instrument
is
fully functional. If no
faults are encountered, the power-up tests normally will be
completed in under five seconds, after which the instru-
ment will enter the normal operating mode. A failure of
any of the power-up tests will be indicated by either a
flashing TR IG'D indicator on the instrument front panel or
a
bottom-line readout on the crt in the form:
TEST
XX
FAIL
YY
(where
XX
is
the
test
number and
YY
is
the
failure code of the failed test).
If
a
failure of any power-up
test
occurs, the instrument
may still be usable for some applications. To put the
instrument into the operating mode after a power-up test
failure, press the A/B TRIG button. If the instrument then
functions for your particular measurement requirement,
it
may be used, but refer
it
to
a
qualified service technician
for repair of the problem
at
the earliest convenience.
Additional information on the power-up
tests
may be
found in Appendix A
at
the rear of this manual. Consult
your service department, your local Tektronix Service
Center, or nearest Tektronix representative if additional
assistance
is
needed.
