9 System Testing Diagnostics
The F8 key displays the current action of the instrument in the
information box in the lower right corner. The message is constantly
replaced as the operation of the instrument changes to complete the
measurement process. This information is particularly helpful if there is
a problem with the instrument and the measurement process is halted in
mid-operation. The message displayed indicates the state of the
instrument when the problem occurred. The following information is a
guideline for diagnostic purposes.
