Turn the DMM7510 on or off
Before installing the instrument, disconnect all external power from the equipment and
disconnect the line cord. Failure to disconnect all power may expose you to hazardous
voltages, which, if contacted, could cause personal injury or death.
On some sensitive or easily damaged devices under test (DUTs), the instrument power-up and
power-down sequence can apply transient signals to the DUT that may affect or damage it. When
testing this type of DUT, do not make final connections to it until the instrument has completed its
power-up sequence and is in a known operating state. When testing this type of DUT, disconnect it
from the instrument before turning the instrument off.
To prevent any human contact with a live conductor, connections to the DUT must be fully insulated
and the final connections to the DUT must only use safety-rated safety jack socket connectors that
do not allow bodily contact.
To turn a DMM7510 on:
1. Disconnect any devices under test (DUTs) from the DMM7510.
2. Press the front-panel POWER switch to place it in the on (|) position.
The instrument displays a status bar as the instrument powers on. The home screen is displayed
when power on is complete.
To turn a DMM7510 off:
Press the front-panel POWER switch to place it in the off (O) position.
