The instrument operates on DC or AC power, whichever is supplied. After
booting, the instrument is ready for operation. The green POWER LED indi-
cates this.
A steady orange LED indicates the instrument is in standby mode.
Warm-up time for OCXO (option R&S FPL1-B4)
When the instrument is switched on, the OCXO requires an extended
warm-up time (see data sheet).
Switching off the instrument
1. Press the POWER key on the front panel.
The R&S FPL1000 switches to standby mode (not in battery operation).
2. For AC power operation, set the AC power switch on the rear panel to position
"O".
For DC power operation, disconnect the DC power supply cable.
The R&S FPL1000 changes into off mode.
Risk of losing data
If you switch off the running instrument using the rear panel switch or by
disconnecting the power cord, and no (charged) battery is available, the
instrument loses its current settings. Furthermore, program data may be
lost.
Press the Power key first to shut down the application properly.
3.1.9 Performing a Self-Alignment
During instrument start, the installed hardware is checked against the cur-
rent firmware version to ensure the hardware is supported. If not, an error
message is displayed ( "Wrong Firmware Version" ) and you are asked to
update the firmware. Until the firmware version is updated, self-alignment
fails.
(For details refer to the R&S FPL1000 User Manual).
