Figure 2-30: Power-Up Screen
The firmware version number, build date, and build time, as well as the instrument’s serial number are
shown along the top of the screen. The instrument’s model number is shown in the center of the screen,
and a start-up task progress bar is shown at the bottom of the screen.
A start-up progress bar is displayed after initialization is complete. Table 2-1 lists the start-up tasks that
are performed. In the table, start-up bar number 1 corresponds to the leftmost segment, and 14 corre-
