M703E Calibrator Operator’s Manual Getting Started
3.4. INITIAL OPERATION
If you are unfamiliar with the M703E theory of operation, we recommend that you read Chapter 9.
For information on navigating the calibrator’s software menus, see the menu trees described in Appendix A.1.
3.4.1. START-UP
After all of the electrical and pneumatic connections are made, turn on the instrument. The exhaust fan and
should start immediately. If the instrument is equipped with an internal photometer installed, the associated
pump should also start up.
The display should immediately display a single, horizontal dash in the upper left corner of the display. This will
last approximately 30 seconds while the CPU loads the operating system.
Once the CPU has completed this activity, it will begin loading the calibrator firmware and configuration data.
During this process, string of messages will appear on the calibrator’s front panel display:
